Jonathan Harvey Ricercare una Melodia
Linda Buckley Exploding Stars
Matthew Grouse I Scream at The Wind (I Hear No Answer)
Michael Gordon Industry
Connie Harris SKIN

Prepare to be wowed by extraordinary electronic sounds as RCM professor Dr Diana Salazar curates this cutting-edge concert series.

Amongst a range of exciting works is Jonathan Harvey’s tape-delay five-part canon and Michael Gordon’s Industry, a work inspired by the Industrial Revolution, technology and instruments as tools.

The concert concludes with a thought-provoking piece of music and performance art, SKIN, by RCM composer Connie Harris. This daring work of music and dance questions the way female composers are viewed in the modern day.
