Songs of wanderlust feat. Chris Burkard

Icelandic composer 脫lafur Arnalds shares songs inspired by the feeling of wanderlust. Plus the photographer Chris Burkard shares the track that brings him ultimate calm.

Join Icelandic composer and pianist 脫lafur Arnalds for another unique musical adventure to seek out that all too elusive feeling of calm.

Let 脫lafur whisk you away from it all with a selection of songs inspired by the desire to travel the world. 脫lafur shares music from the likes of J贸hann J贸hannsson, Alexandra Stre虂liski and Yumiko Morioka, and reflects on how music can be a way to fulfil urges to explore without leaving your home, transporting you out of your surroundings to an idyllic sonic escape.

Plus, the American photographer and director Chris Burkard selects his sonic safe haven - the piece of music that brings him ultimate calm. He picks a reflective track that brings him peace no matter where he is in the world and makes him feel grateful.
