Hollis Taylor and the music of Australia’s Pied Butcherbirds

Tune in to ABC Classic FM’s ‘New Music Up Late’ - as we chat to violinist and composer Hollis Taylor about her work and her influences. We start out with some seriously intense fiddle-playing. Then we shift focus to the music of the Pied Butcherbirds, the major recent influence on Taylor’s recent work. Then it’s back to the fiddle and a few other instruments besides as we hear new works, which take this bird-music and re-present it for human performers!
