[KineJapan] BBC Radio 3 new Sounds of Cinema episode on Sakamoto

[quentin turnour]

The BBC radio's classical music station Radio 3 has an excellent weekly Saturday afternoon movie soundtrack program called SOUNDS OF CINEMA. Presenter Matthew Sweet knows his stuff, and ranges far beyond the usual John Williamson and too-obvious (non-Gruppo di improvvisazone) Enrico Morricone that soundtrack fan podcasts and radio programs tend to stick to. And the great thing about all the BBC radio stations is that (for the moment) they aren't geoblocked, so you can access via its Sounds website or app.
The latest episode looks at Ryuichi Sakamotos film scores, and features a thoughtful interview with his son Neo Soda, discussing CODA - apparently just getting a limited release in the UK https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001w1r6. 

Sweet also announced the Beeb 3 will have a new feature doco. on Sakamato in late April. Lucky Poms; Sakamoto's KAGAMI received performances in London in January, which the BBC Radio also recently covered https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001tsds.
