Mansfield Park (1999) - Marimba and Minimalism

In this episode, we look at the music of Mansfield Park (1999) written by Lesley Barber. We explore how the music aids in telling the story of this adaptation in combining elements of the Baroque and classical era with the minimalism in styles reflecting the older Austen story with Rozema's modern view. We also see the juxtaposition of using traditional classical instruments for Austen adaptations with the less common whether the marimba, glass harmonica, or hurdy-gurdy.Host: Ruth MudgeMusic included in podcast:"Violin Concerto No. 3 in A Major, Hob.
