This is a concert in the tradition of Brian Eno, built live over ninety minutes. For a programme that already presents serious live music, it adds a quieter, more immersive kind.
What the concert involves
The audience sits, or lies, while the sound moves around them from four corners. Three pieces of about half an hour, each building from a single instrument into something warm and full, then thinning back to silence. It asks for the same attention as a chamber recital.
What you are booking
- A finished, self-contained ninety-minute show.
- A clean technical setup, low noise floor, minimal rider.
- Suitable as a seated ticketed concert or a festival slot in a room that can be quiet.
- Full surround sound and simple stage lighting, brought and run.
Why it suits your programme
It sits alongside chamber and contemporary work rather than competing with it, and gives a season a calm, immersive evening that audiences rarely get to sit inside. At a larger scale it can fill a whole building, described on the live ambient music page.
For a longer listen, here is a full set of about twenty minutes, recorded live.
