Brian Eno and the Baltic Sea Philharmonic review – orchestral manoeuvres with the king of ambience | Brian Eno

Edward George vividly remembers when he was first abducted – his word – by music. It was 1973 and he was 10 – the comics-loving son of Dominican immigrants flogging copies of West Indian World newspaper at Ridley Road market in Dalston, London. “It being the East End there was a lot of shouting. Turks, Asians, Caribbean folk. Noise. Jewish shops selling reggae. Because I was little, my sense of space and smell was always heightened. Suddenly there was this other sound.
