Kate Molleson presents the work of British composer Oliver Leith recorded by GBSR duo at the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra's Tectonics Festival in Glasgow.

Kate Molleson presents Oliver Leith's good day good day bad day bad day, a 45-minute work for percussion and piano/keyboards, and written for GBSR Duo - percussionist George Barton and pianist Siwan Rhys. The composer describes this piece as a "tender look at the simultaneously debilitating and beautiful irrationalities of our everyday lives; how our obsessions and compulsions surface and the rituals, superstitions and routines we all play out to appease our minds - and - how that never really works."
