How do composers deal with the past? Peter Sheppard Skærved plays works dedicated to him by four of his long term collaborators, and leads a discussion about the ways that composers work with their material, be it an 18th century drinking song, or a Dowland lute song. Framed by two of Roger Redgates’ caprices, which lie at the heart of Peter’s work as visiting research fellow for the CMRU.
