Description/Abstract:

On Memory is a collaboration between a composer (Whalley), a neurologist (Zeman) and an author (McCall Smith). Explored through music, science and poetry; each movement tackles a different aspect of memory. How are memories formed? What is the power of forgetting, as well as remembering? What part does music play in our autobiographical memory?

After an interval, this is followed with a discussion with the authors led and chaired by Professor Catherine Loveday, digging deeper into the special relationship that music has with memory and our sense of self.

YouTube videos show the performance at Kings Place, and the discussion.
