Stomping Ground and Duo Alti (Hannah Gardiner, Cameron Howe) present a new, semi-staged concert of works for viola duo and cassette tape.
10 May, 2024 at The Old Church, Stoke Newington
A bow draws across a string, a tape head scans a piece of magnetic tape, and a physical action becomes sound. The remnants of that action - the grain of the sound - can carry powerful and nostalgic associations.
This concert explores the connection between medium and nostalgia through a mixture of live performance, tape recording and playback, and fixed digital media.
Programme:
daylonging, slacktide - Cassandra Miller
In manus tuas - Caroline Shaw
Christ lag in Todes Banden - J.S. Bach (arr. Mayse)
Home in That Rock - Traditional (arr. Nunn)
Freedom, Equality, Homosexuality - Robert Reid Allan
Music in Sixths - David Nunn
Swell - Geoff Patrick King
This concert is made possible by generous grants from the Golsoncott Foundation, the Vaughan Williams Foundation, the Finzi Trust, and Steven Larcombe. It is also being performed on Sunday 19 May, 3pm, at St Ethelburga's Centre, Bishopsgate:
