Manage episode 310849785 series 3074798
In this episode I talk with Ken Elkinson, pianist, composer and winner of the 2016 ZMR Award for Best Electronic Album, about how his connection to music has supported and provided direction to the journey of his life, and the lives of those around him. People like Tim Andrew a Connecticut fireman, who calls himself “a charity geek." Tim will be taking Ken's music along with him on his playlist as he hikes the Appalachian Trail to raise funds and awareness for Make-A-Wish Foundation. Ken’s most well-known project to date is his ongoing Music For Commuting series – music composed specifically to help calm angry drivers. The project, which currently consists of 140 tracks has been featured in over 100 press outlets globally including the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, CNN, USA Today and the BBC.
