Creative Sessions . . .

Hi everyone,

  

Our last two creative sessions went really quickly and very productive, with Mira Calix conducting us and getting our 40 Balloons idea off the ground ! we finished our compositions of Pop Music for the Radio broadcast and live concert performance :)

With electronic sounds by Mira, and David Powell from the London Sinfonietta playing Tuba, the sounds from each piece increased in their intensity, from the very low Walking Bass with David, to the Dirge and Memories with Mira playing electronics. 

From the relationship between the sound and movement Katie has choreographed three dance pieces based on the themes of Memory, Dirge and Outerspace connected in the structure to the music compositions. 

Rachel and Mira are programming the Yellow and Blue room from 9 - 10.30pm, inbetween live performances. The pieces they are programming include Dr Samuel J Hoffman Deep Purples, Raymond Scott Ciny Electromium, BBC Radiophonic Workshop Dr Who, Bernard Parmegiani En Phase/Hors Parase, Paul Lansky Smalltalk, Luciano Berio (Sinfonia) II O King, and many more . . . 

We are also working with lighting designer Huw Llewlyn, from the Southbank Centre, for the event. Our three rooms for the night have themes created for their colour, the Yellow Room,  the Blue Room, and the foyer! 

  

In each room we have Balloons floating in the space, and comfy seats to rest while listening to the concert for the 40th Birthday celebrations!


Come and join us for lots of fun at the Spirit Level, RFH 13th dec . . .
Looking forward to seeing you there!
