#kensukeskingdom will have its TV broadcast premiere on BBC1 on Sunday August 3rd, 3:35pm (hope it's a nice rainy afternoon for a big audience). Available after that on @BBCiPlayer, of course. No excuses now for not seeing this beautiful BAFTA-nominated animated masterpiece!

#KensukesKingdom Karaoke #3 - The Island... which has its own mysterious motif. Heard subliminally before we meet Kensuke for the first time and it eventually manifests as his own vocalised chant. Catch the whole soundtrack here: tinyurl.com/yc34k2yu

#KensukesKingdom Karaoke #2 - Stella the dog has her own little theme - a simple two-note motif, based on the syllables of her name. We hear it whenever she's leading the action or emotion of the story in some way. Catch the whole soundtrack here: tinyurl.com/yc34k2yu

#KensukesKingdom Karaoke #1 - the main adventure theme, as Michael and family head round the world trip on the 'Peggy-Sue'. Big and bombastic but with variations on the solo piano for M's longing and isolation. Catch the whole soundtrack here: tinyurl.com/yc34k2yu

I have just returned from the Royal Academy of Music where I saw London Youth Opera's exhilarating production of Pandora'a Box: a witty, melodic piece (Stuart Hancock composer, Donald Sturrock librettist) that deserves to be picked up by youth groups around the country.
