It's looking like I have a very pleasant summer's composing ahead of me, peppered with some nice gigs at the Durham and Galway Festivals
as well as at Ronnie Scott's. My interactive Keybird installation has also resurfaced again as it has been invited to be
part of Portsmouth's Aspex Gallery's summer show. (Details below).
Over the next couple of months then, my main focus will be on two projects: the first is the completion of my commission for Antrim Borough Council's Origins project (a composition for piano and voices); and the other, my continuing collaboration with film-maker Marianne Kapfer on the Watermark documentary, inspired by the closing of Buckland Mill, in Dover, Kent. And, speaking of movies, the public voting has now opened for this year's 'New Music Award', for which my proposed aroundNorth sound installation for the Armagh Observatory is one of the shortlisted contenders. To assist people in choosing which is their preference, a series of short videos have been made, and the one for aroundNorth can be seen on the PRSF New Music Award website. This proposed composition is astronomically inspired - by the stars, their position in the sky and their apparent movement around the Celestial North Pole. Making use of parameters such as star size, brightness and distance from earth, aroundNorth will give voice to the stars and our changing perspective of them as the music plays in synchronisation with the rotation of the earth. My hope is that aroundNorth will provide a connection between its listeners and the wider universe, as well as offering a first-time experience for many blind and partially sighted people to encounter the beauty and wonder inherent in the stars and their celestial patterning. More details can be found on my dedicated project blog here.
