BBC Radiophonic Workshop Planned Dante’s Inferno Musical Project

Archival footage from 1983 indicates that the BBC Radiophonic Workshop had a plan to create a modern musical interpretation of Dante's Inferno. The intention was for listeners to feel a sense of isolation, described as being "alone, in hell," by the end of the program. The legendary sound effects unit was celebrating its 25th anniversary in 1983. Originally reported by MusicRadar.
