Mary Lattimore’s mixtape

Verity Sharp presents an ethereal mixtape from harpist and composer Mary Lattimore. Plus twilight-inspired sounds, traditional Irish folk, Korean flutes and avant-garde accordion.

Verity Sharp presents an ethereal mixtape from Los Angeles-based harpist and composer Mary Lattimore. Raised on classical compositions and The Cure, her own music is inspired by her own experiences of nature and heartbreak as well as poems, imagined tales and news stories. Often described as an instrumental storyteller, Lattimore is drawn to songs that say a lot with no words both as a player and as a listener, reaching for a space where β€˜the melody line is a sentence in itself’. Her latest release is a double whammy - two collections of recordings made between 2015 and 2020, a process she’s described as β€˜opening a box filled with memories’. In the wake of opening this box of memories, she curates a special mixtape for Late Junction to transport you far away.

Elsewhere in the show we’ll be marking the changing of the seasons with twilight-inspired sounds, ahead of the clocks going back this weekend. There’s avant-garde accordion from Pauline Oliveros, traditional banjo playing from Irish folk legend Margaret Barry and a new collaboration between Seoul and Buenos Aires for flute and cello by the duo DASOMxVIOLETA.
