Lines and Dots

mauricehwalters

What can music do that words can’t? What can be expressed in language better than in sound? In this series, Maurice Walters (author and educationalist) and Christopher Sparkhall (Compser and Musical Director) take a thematic look across history and examine the ways in which words and music have been employed by humanity to approach some of the most complex and emotive concepts of existence.
