Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, in which I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious. It's always good to speak to artists at the start of their musical journey - Emily Masser is still studying, while performing professionally around the UK. In this conversation, we discuss her album Songs With My Father , which is out now. There is a maturity to Emily's singing style that promises much and delivers in spades with her father on sax (hence the title) and an all-star rhythm section.
