Loosening the mind-forged manacles. William Blake in words and songs

Inner Life, Talks and Thoughts

A live conversation with Mark Vernon, Katy Carr and Dexter Bentley from the Hello Goodbye Show.
Who was William Blake? What might his music have sounded like? What did he say about the imagination? Why might he understand our predicament today?
Mark Vernon and Katy Carr joined Dexter Bentley on Resonance FM to talk William Blake on Saturday 31st May 2025.
Katy played six songs - her settings of the Introductions from the Songs of Innocence and also from the Songs of Experience, as well as The Lamb and TheTyger, and finally London and The Blossom.
