Hannah Peel in conversation at Jodrell Bank
Hannah Peel will be in conversation with astrophysicist Professor Tim O’Brien at a special event at Jodrell Bank, on Thursday 30 September. This intimate discussion will be chaired by Professor Teresa Anderson, MBE.
This exclusive event features the world premiere of Hannah’s brand-new composition for the BBC Philharmonic, a fascinating exploration of sounds foraged from around Jodrell Bank, created for BBC Radio 4’s upcoming celebration of the Observatory’s 80th anniversary.
The evening also marks the re-release of Hannah’s critically acclaimed album, Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopea, a seven-movement odyssey exploring one person’s journey to outer space.
Celestial choruses, shimmering drones and trumpet solos have a melancholic sparkle; slabs of brass and loops of sombre, sweeping strings lend pathos and prompt wonder. Mighty stuff. The Evening Standard on Mary Casio
Together, Hannah and Tim will delve into the sonification of scientific data, Hannah’s creative process and relationship with Jodrell Bank, and the powerful intersection of space and storytelling.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience how science and music converge, uncovering new ways of understanding the Universe through sound, creativity, and collaboration.
Guests will have the opportunity to meet Hannah after the event for a special album signing. Pre-event dining is also available.

There are pieces of music that seek to tell us deeper stories. Others harness the talents of the players at their disposal in adventurous ways. Then there are the rare, generous works that make us think back to our roots as human beings and to our shared beginnings in the universe, that lift us in their melodies, rhythms and textures, that carry us with them. The Unfolding is all of these things.
