Heather Bentley Strings, From Classical to Improvisation, Composer, Trailblazer.
Heather Bentley Strings, From Classical to Improvisation, Composer, Trailblazer.
I am chatting to the multitalented Heather Bentley today. This is a great chat about her journey in music. There are some amazing insights here from a wonderful musician.
Seattle-based violist and composer Heather Bentley has trailblazed a career as one of the West Coast’s most visible improvisatory musicians, specializing in creating evocative atmospheres and textures.
Classically trained, she has shifted to an unabashedly experimental artistic output: As a performer, she can be seen performing on instruments like her electric seven string and five string violins or her electronic pedal board in numerous chamber ensembles that utilize improvisation, electronics, and often both.
As a composer, her work for chamber ensembles and orchestras has been performed by organizations across the US. Relentless in her pursuit of creativity, she continues this work as co-founder of Kin of the Moon, a 501(c)3 organization which fosters collaboration between artists in service of creating unique art.

Mark Hewitt Snowshill Manor, Charles Wade, Skateboarding and Magical Objects.
This episode is with the wonderful Mark Hewitt. We talk Skateboarding, the magical world of Snowshill Manor and its link with the Museum of Magic in Boscastle and Mark’s forthcoming book on the artifacts of the Snowshill Manor and the eccentric life of Charles Wade.
We explore the links between music and skateboarding which I thought was fascinating and also the deep dive into how objects change their nature from items of curiosity to objects of magic.

Bet Huws Welsh Folklore and Magic the power of the Welsh language Mabinogion.
I'm talking to Bet Huws about the importance of language rooted in the soil and the importance of using Welsh for running events on magic and folklore.
We talk about the enchanting nature of the Welsh language and the Science of Awe.
We talk about the Mabinogion, the Bardic tradition, Awen and how words affect change.
This is a great chat with someone who's passionate about her language and her country and that many of its traditions of healing and folklore are pretty much continuous, unlike England.

Customer Reviews
Great listening
Love these interviews. Really great insight into all sorts of people.
Creativity masterclasses
Vic’s podcasts are so insightful and throw up so many great ideas that I often have to go back and listen again and take notes. The relaxed, but inquisitive style and fascinating range of guests make for a really absorbing listen.
Insightful and inspiring
Vic has a knack of getting the best from people - he has an empathy and his own mastery of creativity (and a unique ability of unlocking it in others). This series is a must if you have more than a passing interest in the arts… inspiring conversations about other peoples journeys in the arts.
