James MacMillan on The Confession of Isobel Gowdie

BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra | 16:24 UK time, Monday, 12 October 2009

We recently interviewed composer James MacMillan at the Edinburgh Festival and asked him about his work The Confession of Isobel Gowdie. The BBC SSO premiered The Confession of Isobel Gowdie at the Proms way back in 1990 and we're playing it again in Glasgow and Perth this week. James was more than happy to give us some insight into one of his most famous works and you can view the interview below. He also gave us a little bit of chat on The Sacrifice and what it takes to be a composer and we'll post those interviews at a later date.
