Oh no, his only real knowledge of/interest in music is his love for the Doctor Who stuff. He can still point out the BBC Symphony though, despite Doctor Who being BBCNOW, not the SO. It makes absolutely no sense. Hence my utter confusion on how he does it.

BBCNOW/Bancroft/Gerhardt Review – Intressanta kopplingar, magi och melankolisk skönhet | Klassisk musik
Cadavre Exquis är ett spel där surrealistiska konstnärer som Yves Tanguy eller Joan Miró bidrar separat till ett enda verk, utan hänsyn till vad andra har gjort, eller bara för att se hur målningen utvecklas, likt resultatet. Anders Hilborg tog denna princip som inspiration för sin komposition The Exquisite Corpse, men medan surrealisterna önskade tecken på en omedveten kollektiv sensibilitet, bär de nya komponenterna i Hilborgs verk hans medvetet idiosynkratiska prägel, samtidigt som de innehåller referenser till så olika kompositörer som Stravinsky, Ligeti och Sibelius.
