This week I'm joined by Dr. Malcolm Galloway, a neuropathologist, musician, and actor from London, England.
I invited Malcolm on the show to expand the breadth of our consideration of music beyond the typical, in the interests of how we interpret it. In our discussion about the songs that make his skin vibrate, Malcolm intertwines the emotionality of music with the technical aspects that contribute to that emotionality, making for a very interesting conversation spanning Prog, David Gilmour's kidney disease, the criticality of musical timing, the Minimalists' impact on classical music, and ABBA.
Galloway's playlist:
Warm Wet Circles – Marillion
Eight Lines - Steve Reich
Drowning - All About Eve
The Rite Of Spring - Igor Stravinsky
Quartet from the musical Chess
Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd
