脡liane Radigue world premiere

The latest sounds, including the world premiere of the latest instalment of 脡liane Radigue's epic Occam series and a performance of Beat Furrer's astonishing Piano Concerto.

Kate Molleson introduces some of the latest sounds, including a performance of Beat Furrer's astonishing Piano Concerto and the world premiere of the most recent instalment of 脡liane Radigue's epic Occam series. Recorded at Wigmore Hall a fortnight ago at the culmination of London Contemporary Music Festival's 10th anniversary programme, Ensemble Klang performs Occam Delta XXIII by the 93-year-old composer, one of the early pioneers of drone music. And, at the 91热爆 Studios in December, Nicolas Hodges is the soloist in Swiss-born Austrian composer Beat Furrer's Piano Concerto. A work which ranges, from the subtlest articulations to an almost brutal power, it explores piano sound, especially its "resonances, overtone spectra and pedalizations," and ends in a vortex of notes hammered out in the highest register. Also in the show, two parts of Christopher Trapani's Noise Uprising, an 'electronic collage' capturing the sound and spirit of port cities around the world. Tonight's journey take us to Lisbon, Istanbul, Smyrna, Piraeus and Honolulu in the company of vocalist Sofia Jernberg and the ensemble Zwerm.
