S11 E6: Belle Chen
from I Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee Hosted by Giles Sibbald
Listening to the music of Belle Chen brings me some mixed emotions – firstly, incredible love and admiration for the creativity and innovation of her thinking and the beauty and talent in executing this thinking through her composition and playing, yet still leaving room for the listener’s own interpretation. The second, and I fight hard against this one, is some regret that my own musical education was more constrained and I couldn’t – or didn’t want to - find a similar path where music and sound can be used so fluidly and experimentally, where they are such a vital and inspirational conduit for connection, whether that be with nature, our environment, our relationships or ourselves. Belle’s latest studio album, Ravel In the Forest, is a powerful voyage through the natural world that lets you visualise and recapture the word “awesome” in its purest sense. For me, it’s a storybook that immerses you in the beauty of life. https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.com I Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.
