Hilary Seabrook - writer, podcaster, musician

Singer songwriter  Sheila Simmenes  joins me for this latest episode of Harmonious World , sharing her experience of writing an album, recording in Brazil and Norway, and then finding the right producer to polish it ready for release.     Love Was Easy  blends a multitude of musical sounds from Sheila, who is well-known as a songwriter for international artists.     Thanks to Sheila for allowing me to use clips from the album alongside our conversation.

I was pleased to be joined by conductor  Gisele Ben-Dor  for a chat about her latest album  Cien Anos , which features the music of Piazzolla and Bandoneon player, arranger and composer  Juanjo Mosalini .     Cien Anos  is a wonderful album and it was fascinating talking to Gisele about the lack of exposure for Latin American music and how this album was recorded.     Thanks to Gisele for allowing me to use clips from the album alongside our conversation.
