The Emperor and the Pianola is a captivating episode of BBC Radio 3’s Between the Ears series, exploring the fascinating story of Emperor Haile Selassie I and his pianola.

The programme covers the period during Selassie’s exile when he stayed at Fairfield House in Bath, revealing the cultural and musical backdrop of that time.

Professor Shawn Sobers uncovers the historical significance of the emperor’s pianola, shedding light on the music and stories connected to this extraordinary chapter in history.

I provided extensive audio production, sound editing, and final mix delivery for the Bath production company Reel Soul Movies. The entire production was completed using Adobe Audition in my studio in Bath.

Sound is half the story.
