Aidan O'Rourke, James Robertson & Kit Downes at the Edinburgh International Book Festival
In 2013, James Robertson wrote a story every day of the year, each 365 words long. Then, Scottish fiddler Aidan O’Rourke wrote a tune a day as a musical response. 2019 marks the next chapter: O’Rourke launches Volume 2 of the music; the trio created a new commission for the New Music Biennial; and we launch an ambitious installation collecting all the voices and songs, which you can experience in our Bookshop on George Street before it tours the country. In this event filmed live at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival, join the creators of 365 Stories to hear their extraordinary work. Supported by the PRS Foundation’s New Music Biennial.
