Stewart Copeland has spent a life in music - listening, composing and playing.

At the age of seven he was captivated by Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. 60 years and 25 bands later, including The Police, the spell is still strong, but why? How does music ignite that excitement?

In this three part series, Stewart explores how music brings people together, moves them, binds them, communicates stories like no other art form. Why is it that music has seemingly transcendental powers that enable us to escape and connect with our Gods?

Stewart travels the world meeting composers, musicians, filmmakers, DJs and scientists to ask the question, how does music work?

In this first episode, Come Together, Stewart explores the power music has to bond people in ways that are fundamental to our evolution and existence. His travels take him from the Southern German cave where a 40,000 year old bone flute was discovered to the modern day mass singalong of New York’s Choir! Choir! Choir! Along the way he gets to play with a Memphis marching band, join a song circle led by Bobby McFerrin and deconstruct the sexiness of Relax with its producer Trevor Horn. He also discusses the art of song-writing with his old colleague Sting and learns how to create dance floor unity with International star DJ Honey Dijon.
