32 Sounds is an immersive feature documentary and profound sensory experience from Academy-Award nominated filmmaker Sam Green (The Weather Underground, A Thousand Thoughts) featuring original music by JD Samson (Le Tigre, MEN). The film explores the elemental phenomenon of sound by weaving together 32 specific sound explorations into a cinematic meditation on the power of sound to bend time, cross borders, and profoundly shape our perception of the world around us. Join Oscar nominated filmmaker Green as he takes the audience on a journey through time and space exploring everything from forgotten childhood memories, to the soundtrack of resistance, to subaquatic symphonies and experience in new ways the astonishing sounds of our everyday lives. 32 Sounds investigates the mysterious nature of perception and the subtle yet radical politics that arise from sensation and being present in one’s body.

In this sumptuous four-part series, renowned historian David Starkey shows how the monarchy has shaped the history of British music in ways we can hear today, and demonstrates how much of British history is preserved within some of the nation’s best-loved tunes. While exploring what the monarchy has done for music, David Starkey also shows what music has done for the monarchy by helping define and perpetuate the distinctive royal identity of the nation. This history of a nation written in music features some of the most glorious pieces ever written – from national anthems to neglected treasures – in the historic royal locations for which they were originally composed, such as St Paul’s Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and King’s College Cambridge. It takes you from the medieval era and its extraordinary complex choral music, to the innovative instrumental music of the 17th century, right through to the 20th century and provides an entertaining and enlightening new perspective on British history.
