SOPHIE Interview with Nabihah Iqbal

At Somerset House in August 2019, Nabihah Iqbal spoke with visionary music producer SOPHIE in a wide ranging conversation as part of her Glory To Sound series. This nigh-on 2 hour conversation brings together two friends who worked together on numerous projects, with SOPHIE being one of the first people to encourage Nabihah to use her voice in music, adding vocals to the track "Lemonade". SOPHIE sadly passed away in 2021.

We spoke to Nabihah last month on her latest musical project, Imagined, Eternal. 

The recording is part of the Glory To Sound series of events; talks, live shows and club nights hosted by Nabihah. 

Glory To Sound is a new musical initiative founded by musician, DJ, broadcaster and Somerset House Studios resident Nabihah Iqbal, inspired by her love for music. Through a series of events - talks, live shows and club nights, the aim is to experience and explore music from different perspectives, and to think about what it really means to us. Music is a powerful force, and some of our strongest feelings and experiences are triggered by listening to, or playing music.

The way that music connects strangers, whether it's hundreds of people dancing in a club, or thousands of people watching a festival headliner, is an amazing thing. Glory To Sound is about this power, and the way that music transcends boundaries. It's about why we love music, and its significance in our lives.
