Vibrant Sound presents:NOMAD (Music That Moves) is a prize-winning, shape-shifting ensemble, founded by three classically trained musicians, Ailsa Burns, Iona Kaye and Elena Orsi. With storytelling at the heart of their process, they curate and create intimate multi-media and immersive experiences, with a bold commitment to experimentation, improvisation and themes of nature.
They have recently taken part in a collaboration with Senegalese percussionist Dudu Kouate as part of the Vibrant Sound residency programme, in conjunction with Creative Peaks and L'Espace Sauvanie in France. They'll be sharing some music from the residency alongside some of their repertoire which includes pieces commissioned for them with roots in folk and contemporary classical music.

Juliana Day (who you may have seen performing with the amazing Emergence Collective for Vibrant Sound back in December) will be performing music from her upcoming album, Lull. In her own words...
"When I was asked to record an album for the interludes between performances at the Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music, I thought about the word “interlude” in a more general sense- periods of rest and stillness, but also periods of change, uncertainty and transition. The album draws upon these ideas, exploring things that serve these “in between” functions- places, periods of time, journeys, dreams and stages of life.
The album was recorded live at Highfield Trinity Church, Sheffield in one four hour session. Manon McCoy and Zebedee Budworth are featured on two tracks, in two completely unplanned improvisations.
Responding to the space’s reverb and the busy traffic outside, these improvisations use the lower family of recorders, whistles, vocalisations, loops, found sounds and field recordings. The album takes influence from choral music, folk, minimalism and artists such as Brian Eno, Tim Hecker, Mary Lattimore, Kali Malone, Hatis Noit, Steve Reich, Ichiko Aoba, William Basinski and Pauline Oliveros
