  • Brilliant guests & discoveries

    What a brilliant Podcast series (6 seasons so far!) this has turned into. I tend to catch up once a month & whilst I haven’t heard many of the guests prior, there are brilliant stories, links & musical snippets entwined that make you look further for streams. Nicely presented by Saxophonist Hilary.

  • Short but informative

    Harmonious World gives short but concise insight into musicians lives and work. Although quite “bite size”, a lot of background and information gets packed in all told by the interviewees and expertly guided by Hilary. A lovely springboard into the subjects life which sets your appetite to find out more.

Q: Tell me about how long it took you to compose some of these pieces, and what your process looks like.
