Programme

Concert information

Scottish cellist Alison McGillivray performs Catlin Smith’s work for solo Baroque Cello, described by the composer as “a melody in search of its harmony”, while the composer’s Morandi is named after the Italian painter whose still lifes “reveal a preoccupation with the same objects, in muted colours, painted over and over again”. As well as being composers in their own right, Tim Parkinson and James Saunders regularly perform together employing lo-fi electronics, ordinary objects, toys, vocalisations and other natural sound sources, resulting in a table-top orchestra of possibilities.
