Programme:
Richard Reed Parry Music for Heart and Breath
Nicole Lizée Black MIDI
Christopher Mayo Beast
Richard Reed Parry keys into the most basic of all rhythms, the human heartbeat, for his Music for Heart and Breath. Instrumentalists are connected to stethoscopes, their heartbeats act as a metronome and their breath the downbeat of a conductor’s baton. As each individual’s body-rhythms are different, so is each performance of Music for Heart and Breath, providing a unique experience for both audience and performers. The programme also features Christopher Mayo’s Beast and a UK premiere of Nicole Lizée’s Black MIDI, all performed in London’s only lighthouse.
Black MIDI is co-commissioned by Spitalfields Music, Avanti! and Gaudeamus Muziekweek with
