The Electro-Acoustic Ensemble: acoustic, electro-acoustic and acousmatic music spanning over 100 years.
Programme
Fetes Lointaines (1920) for piano, by Federico Mompou opens the concert with 6 contemplative ‘regards’ of memories, suffused with the colours of bells.
Mortuos Plango Vivos Voco (1980) for 8 channel tape, by Jonathan Harvey, takes us on a journey through the colours of the Great bell at Winchester Cathedral accompanied by a chorister, in this landmark work.”On Coincedence” (2024) for piano and electronics is by Simon Mary- Vincent …
The concert returns to acousmatic music with a performance of ” … another Mighty angel … ” (2009) for 4 channel tape by John Stead. Here a vast angelic vision unexpectedly opens up – powerful, overwhelming and surreal.
The concert ends with a short work, Wast. (1990) for 8 channel tape by John Stead. This piece is one of a pair of works, from the Natural Histories suite, exploring the vast depths of water, stone and space at Yordas Cave, in Deepdale and Wast Water in the Lake District.
