We are completely delighted to announce that we have been asked to perform at the Huddersfield contemporary music festival later this year. We will be performing a 20 minute version of the accordion tape recorders piece some of you may have seen on Inchkeith last year, or at our concrete events. We will be performing on Monday November 24th at St Paul's Hall, University of Huddersfield. Our performance will begin at 1710 and will last 20 minutes. Full details regarding the festival can be found at www.hcmf.co.uk
Throughout 2008, we are organising a series of events relating to concrete. At each event, we will perform two pieces of music based around recordings of a cement mixer. The music has been created in response to the detailed, minimal, repetitive qualities of concrete. The performances will take place in urban spaces in which concrete features prominently. To receive more information about these events, please subscribe to our mailing list by clicking here.
