Nakul Krishnamurthy's One Million Dancing Shivas
Kate Molleson introduces the latest in New Music including Nakul Krishnamurthy's One Million Dancing Shivas from Explore Ensemble and Michael Finnissy's Edda from Mimi Doulton.
Kate Molleson introduces some of the latest sounds in New Music including Nakul Krishnamurthy's One Million Dancing Shivas in the world premiere of a version for Explore Ensemble. Also tonight, from the Spitalfields Festival, Mimi Doulton sings Michael Finnissy's Edda, inspired by the Old Norse poem with its mysterious, often sinister invocation of the ancient gods, Thor, Freyr and Odin. And, from Donaueschingen, Lula Romero's Parallax for orchestra explores the possibility of an audible parallax effect. By positioning the musicians of the orchestra in three asymmetrical groups around the audience she avoids a "sweet spot," a privileged point from which all groups can be heard equally well. This creates a multiplicity of experiences for different listeners which for her is a parallel for our need to rethink how we relate to others and to the world. And in Inspirations, composer and improviser, Lawrence Dunn talks about some of the music that inspires him.
