Topic: Paul Morely on BBC 4
For anyone who can access the BBC.
Paul Morley - ( He who has been a music critic / lover / nut for billions of years. He marketed Frankie Goes to Holywood, appeared on ABC's Look of Love video as well as writing for NME in the 70's - yes then!) is on BBC4 at 9.00 tonight (Sat 18 July) and tomorrow.
Why should this be in the Theory section. Well, apparently he has admitted that he has no music theory, despite having critiqued it since 1972. This programme is about a year he spent in the Royal Academy of Music studying composition, eventually writing his own symphony (?!). Apparently he talks about how it changed his views on music.
Sounds like a must watch - on catch up anyway.
