Description This collaboration between Topology and Loops is a mammoth retrospective of 100 years of key moments in radio broadcast history. They make music from the important speeches of our time, working from the inherent melodies with the speeches. The voices of world leaders and controversial figures of our century - like Clinton, George Bush, Einstein, Freud, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Hitler, Ghandi, Churchill, Edward VII and many others - are transformed into song. This unusual performance will see the text of the speech projected on a screen whilst the musicians create a musical layer.
