Debbie Bridge in the Radio Studio
Radio was a new adventure for Debbie, which started with a call from Radio Reverb (97.2 fm), a community based Radio station in Brighton, who were looking for new and interesting programmes to help launch their radio station onto fm and on the internet. Debbie submitted “The New Classics” , a show devoted to current UK writers of contemporary classical music. This show is no longer running, but there are plans to create a new radio show for another community based radio station, based around Debbie’s Talks about American Composers, so watch this space to see some samples in the near future.
Below are some interviews from previous shows:
Excerpts from “The New Classics” Radio Show
- July ’07: Pete Wyer – Brighton Based Film/TV/Theatre/Opera composer
- June ’07: Steve Dummer from Talkestra
- May ’07: Claudio Molitor and Patrick Harrex from the Soundwaves Festival
Wanting to do something more community based, Debbie also created “Debbie’s Mixed Bag – Fine Arts and Fine People of Brighton and Hove.” Aired once a week on Sean Creed’s show, bRighToN pHlUx, these are 10 minutes slots where Debbie interviewed various artists, charities and not for profit businesses about their work in and around the community.
Below are some interviews from previous shows:
- Debbie interviewing Guy Hall, a composer and drummer from Sussex.
- Interview with Alix Dryden, artist.
- With Laura Escott, Chairperson for Survivors Network, a registered charity to meet the needs of women who were sexually abused in childhood and are now facing the long-term consequences.
