A short film made for BBC2, it features insight into the inspiration that Christ Church, Spitalfields gave the composer/performer, John Harle, in the composition of the piece 'Terror and Magnificence'. Writer Iain Sinclair and Professor of Architecture Keith Critchlow contribute with fascinating detail about the structure of the building, the neighbourhood and the overwhelming presence of this huge-scale Hawksmoor church, built after The Great Fire of London.
