Isolation, In Your Words
Commissioned by the BBC for Culture in Quarantine, Isolation, In Your Words is a 14-track musical documentary about life in lockdown, created around the words of the British public.
The project features the voices of 45 people speaking at the height of lockdown, woven into a modern soundtrack through lyrical storytelling and verbatim techniques, combining the diverse musical backgrounds of writers Mandeep., Leanne Sedin, Kevin Fox and producer Zar (Arun Dhanjal).
Blurring the line between songwriting and social research, and moving effortlessly between genres as varied as the voices themselves, Isolation, In Your Words stands as a musical snapshot of this unique moment in history.
“I have seen the benefits of Leanne's skills in supporting our staff and service users through her leadership of our choir first hand. Leanne's style is inclusive and fun, she has a real skill in helping everyone build confidence whatever their perceived level of musical ability is. The contribution to our collective wellbeing and improved connection with one another around a common purpose is special. Thank you for helping us connect and build our ELFT NHS culture through song!”
— Dr Navina Evans (CEO of East London NHS Foundation Trust)
