Richard will be joined in conversation by Solent Seascape Project Manager Louise MacCallum, who will explore the people, places and habitats that inspired the music.
The album features songs inspired by the Island, including Wight Paint and Lanterns Part 1, with Richard basing these on meeting artist Trudie Wilson on the seafront at Ryde, and a walk up Tennyson Down. Now you can hear them, in the very locations that inspired the music.
