In the first of two special episodes linked to the Cheltenham festival, this week’s guest is composer Aileen Sweeney. Aileen has written a piece which forms part of the site specific work ‘Byrdwatching’ which premieres on sat 8 July.Even by TIAB’s usual standards this is a brilliantly bonkers episode which careers around a whole host of subjects - with a smattering of music chat thrown in for good measure!Aileen talks about taking an extended break from composing, getting the rage at Ceilidhs, her opinions on Beethoven &amp; Byrd, writing for recorder consort - not something she’d naturally have chosen but has embraced with open arms. She also discusses a close call with a writing deadline and a fail safe compositional tool…Seb and Verity both recount near death experiences had that week and give Aileen some words of warning about upcoming plans! Thanks to Aileen for her patience with extreme tech issues at the start and to the criminal justice system for releasing her from Jury Duty before the interview!You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram @threeinabarpodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/We are on Twitter @threeinabarpod https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpodAnything you’d like to share with us?

The Braw and The Brave is a podcast about people and their passions.Episode 185 is in conversation with award-winning Glasgow based composer, musician and arranger Aileen Sweeney. From the tin whistle to accordion, tenor sax to piano, from a young age Aileen had an appetite and natural aptitude for music, encouraged by her parents to pursue her goals. Studying a music degree and subsequently a masters at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Aileen has gone on to compose pieces commissioned by many of the UK’s ensembles, with her piece ‘Above the Stars’ performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra winning 'Large Scale New Work' at The Scottish Awards for New Music. An accomplished accordionist, Aileen has gigged all over Scotland,  appearing at the likes of Celtic Connections and Eden Festival with her band ERISKA. When she’s not composing, performing or teaching music, Aileen is cohost of the award-winning podcast Ear to the Ground with Ben Eames, talking to Scottish/Scottish based composers about their music and careers. Aileen is incredibly passionate about her craft and combined with her infectious positive energy and down to earth approach, she continues to challenge herself, dedicated to creating music for others to enjoy!Websitehttps://www.aileensweeney.com/Instagram https://instagram.com/aileen.sweeney.music?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=Ear to the Ground podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/ear-to-the-ground-scotland/id1539299011ERISKA https://www.eriska.netIf you’ve enjoyed this episode you can help support the production of future episodes by clicking on the Ko-Fi link below.
