Arts Wednesday 18 August 2021

Once again, Arts Wednesday from the archives! In the first half hour, I’m going back to 2013 to an interview I recorded with Scott Kinmont, who plays a most strange medieval musical instrument called the serpent.

At 11:00 am, I’m repeating a conversation I recorded last year with Dr Brett Summerell, Director of Science and Conservation at Royal Botanic Gardens. Brett also happens to be Australia’s expert on Fungi and that’s the topic of conversation. Learn about the diversity of this enormous kingdom!

Music this week is all about COVID and lockdown. Let’s try and share some laughs!
