Can you hear colour? About 4 percent of the world’s population experience a mysterious phenomenon called synesthesia. When everything shut down during the pandemic, jazz singer Juliet Kelly realised she was one of them.

Deciding to explore this through music, she began writing some songs while thinking about various colours. The colour yellow is represented by the ballad Here With You. Romantic and uplifting, it’s an enchanting blend of gentle guitar and tender vocals - a celebration of love.

Wuthering Heights

The Time Traveler's Wife is the debut novel of American author Audrey Niffenegger, published in 2003. It is a love story about a man with a genetic disorder that causes him to time travel unpredictably, and about his wife, an artist, who has to cope with his frequent absences and dangerous experiences. They first meet on one of his time travels when she is 6 but it's not until she is 20 and he is 28 that she meets him "naturally". In their last meeting, she is 82 and he is 43. All He'll Ever Need is a love song.

All He'll Ever Need

The Master & Margarita is a novel by Mikhail Bulgakov, written between 1928 and 1940 but unpublished in book form until 1967. It is woven around a visit by the Devil to the fervently atheistic Soviet Union and is considered by many critics to be one of the best Soviet satires ever written. This complex novel, heavily influenced by Goethe's Faust, inspired the song Devilish Disguise.
