Andrew Clifford traces what happened after radical English guitarist Ivan Zagni (Blue Whale, Jody Grind) arrived in New Zealand, played with bands like Big Sideways and Avant Garage, and began experimenting with classical music.
The story ends with the premier broadcast of Ivan Zagni’s 'The Cospatrick Tragedy' performed by The New Zealand Chamber Orchestra.
Musical Chairs was produced and presented by Andrew Clifford and engineered by Ian Gordon for National Radio.
