A Life In Music
An exclusive, personal service from Ictus Media
A priceless record of your loved one’s memories, told through music.
Sometimes it only takes the first notes of a favourite song to bring the past back to life.
At A Life in Music, we use music to unlock your loved one’s memories and help them tell their story in their own words.
The result is a priceless record of their life and the soundtrack that accompanied it.
A keepsake for the future
Each person receives a unique keepsake: their story printed as a beautiful, limited edition hardback book.
We also shape their story into a personal audio documentary, which can shared as a vinyl album, CD or online listening page.
A special gift for big birthdays, anniversaries, or any moment of reflection.
Something to share with family and future generations.
A conversation. And a celebration.
At Ictus, we believe in doing things properly.
All our interviewers are former-BBC journalists or producers, and each A Life In Music project is completed to exacting international broadcasting standards.
Each A Life In Music session begins with a relaxed and sensitive conversation with an Ictus producer, choosing songs and mapping out areas to explore - whether childhood, teenage years or later turning points. At all times, we let you and your family shape the story.
We follow this with an informal, conversational interview, mixing memories with a selection of favourite records.
After the recording, we professionally edit and mix the interview with music. Video or filming is also available if required.
