Sharing the music that holds our stories
Music To Die For gathers stories of love, loss and joy, creating a space to explore how music supports us with grief.
Music helps organise our lives, brings meaning to our hardest moments and helps us honour the connections that shape who we are. Through the stories we tell and the music we share, we celebrate the profound role soundtracks play in carrying our lives forward, even when facing the most difficult endings.
Music To Die For invites you to do just one thing:
Tell us about a piece of music and how it connects you to someone you’ve lost.

Hazel & Phillipa
Founded by Dr Hazel Harrison and Phillipa Anders, Music To Die For was created from a shared passion for the way music shapes our lives. In 2024, they were awarded a Creative Health Residency by Britten Pears Arts to explore how music connects us to people, memories and emotions that words alone cannot express.
