In the early Seventies we shivered in our pants in school halls, hurling ourselves about, interpreting dramatically the sounds and words of BBC Schools’ Music And Movement programs.
Trunk have saved an especially exceptional example from the BBC bins, 1969’s The Seasons, during which the violent poetry of Ronald Duncan is intoned over spooky electronica from the radiophonics pioneer David Cain. “The Earth is ready, who will take her? The Earth’s a woman. Time will take her.”
My God, was education once so daring, so deranged?
Let England weep. Must we fling this Art at our kids?
