The Unit produces an output varying from complete background scores of electronic music for radio and television drama through experimental poetry programmes to signature tunes.The Workshop at the BBC Music Studios in Maida Vale, London, is equipped with tape recording machines and other electronic equipment for generating and manipulating sound. The composition and realisation of this music and sound is done by a small number of specialised creative staff. John Baker Born in Leigh-on-Sea in 1937. Studied composition and piano at the Royal Academy of Music. Joined the BBC in May 1960 as a sound mixer and transferred to the Radiophonic Workshop in April 1963. David Cain Born in Stoke-on-Trent in 1941. Educated at Brewood Grammar School and Imperial College, London, w he gained a degree in Mathematics. Joined the BBC in September 1963 as a Studio Manager and specialised in radio drama. Following a short-term attachment to the Radiophonic Workshop he became a permanent member of the Unit in April 1967. Delia Derbyshire � Born in Coventry in 1937; trained as a pianist; read mathematics and music at Cambridge University; has worked at the Radiophonic Workshop since 1962. Each programme to be worked on usually requires that the precise mood be established, and in achieving this the transient or incidental nature of the music has to be remembered. As a result she often decides to attach more importance to the musical quality of the individual sounds than to the musical argument, which is usually kept simple or even non-existent. She prefers to use an analytical approach and to synthesise complex sounds using electronic sources; she finds that this throws valuable light on the nature of sound and the way we hear and interpret it- Desmond Briscoe, BBC Radiophonic Workshop. tracklisting Composer 01.
