Ep 320 pt.1 w/ Peter Knight

Peter Knight is an Australian composer, trumpeter, and sound artist. He has been Artistic Director of the Australian Art Orchestra for the last ten years, performed with Anthony Braxton, Senyawa, and Alvin Lucier, and played at some of the most significant festivals and venues in the world. He has also recently released his twelfth album, Shadow Phase, on the inimitable @Room40 imprint. @phjk From Peter: "This is a mix of tracks that have inspired me, particularly across COVID when I was craving that sense of ’strange beauty’ that each of these works impart - at least to me. Sometimes when I am making music I will 'check in' with albums that relate somehow to the music I am working on, and each of these tracks has a quality that seemed relevant to what I was working on for Shadow Phase."
