The Person First with Sarah Angliss

Sarah Angliss is a British composer, multi-instrumentalist and sound historian whose music combines ancient instruments with theremin, electronics and her own robotic inventions. She performs her music live and also composes for theatre. In November 2018 she received an artists award from the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. During this podcast Sarah chats to Ben about growing up and the impact her grandmother had on her. The consequences that having septicaemia at 13 had on her life. She talks openly about her approach to work, success and happiness, not tying your identity into the thing you. The importance of keeping coming up with ideas, mental health, routine and the value of having honest friends.
