Composers' Workshop: Julian Anderson

Julian Anderson is among the most esteemed and influential composers of his generation, and has enjoyed residencies with City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, the Cleveland Orchestra, and the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Here he talks about Van Gogh Blue (described by the Royal Philharmonic Society as ‘a work of exceptional quality, imbued with rhythmic dynamism’) ahead of its performance on 23 February by the University of Cambridge New Music Ensemble under the direction of Naomi Woo.
