Northern Lights Project and Hard Rain SoloistEnsemble present landmark solo works by Pierre Boulez, alongside a programme of compelling contemporary pieces.Anthèmes 2 (1997), for violin and live electronics, is a virtuosic and immersive exploration of space and sound. Performed by violinist Darragh Morgan, the work demonstrates Boulez’s masterful synthesis of acoustic performance and electronic manipulation, enveloping the listener in a dynamic, multidimensional sonic landscape.
Equally captivating is Dialogue de l’ombre double (1984), a dramatic work for clarinet and tape performed by clarinettist Sarah Watts. Structured as a theatrical dialogue between the live performer and a pre-recorded electronic counterpart, it is a profound meditation on memory, echo and identity.
Full programme:
Pierre Boulez – Dialogue de l’ombre double
Pierre Boulez – Anthèmes II
Kaija Saariaho – Près
Robert Coleman – These hills used to be forests
