THERE WILL BE BLOOD AT HAMER HALL THIS AUGUST MIFF AND MSO TEAM UP MELBOURNE, 10 May 2017 – This August, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra will perform the live score for Paul Thomas Anderson Academy Award®-winning epic, There Will Be Blood (2007) at Hamer Hall for a special one-night only screen and sound performance as part of the Melbourne International Film Festival. In this Australian premiere, the remarkable score composed by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood, will be performed by the MSO, while the dramatic film plays on the big screen above. UK-based, 31 year-old conductor Hugh Brunt will be making his way to Melbourne for this special one-off performance. Known for his work with the London Contemporary Orchestra, Brunt has collaborated with Greenwood on films in the past, and conducted the string and choir arrangements on Radiohead's most recent release, A Moon Shaped Pool. Hugh said he was thrilled to be performing in Melbourne for the first time. “Bringing this incredible production to Melbourne is a real honour and I’m very much looking forward to working with the wonderful Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, an orchestra I greatly respect. It’s a spectacular film, accompanied by such a powerful score, and I’m excited for us to present this unique live experience to audiences at the Melbourne International Film Festival”, said Mr. Brunt. This is the first time the film, starring Daniel Day-Lewis has been presented in this format outside of the UK, cementing this concert as one of the must-see events on the Melbourne calendar this winter. This special event is proudly presented by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and the Melbourne International Film Festival. The 2017 Melbourne International Film Festival runs 3 – 20 August. THERE WILL BE BLOOD plays Saturday 5 August, 7.00pm. Arts Centre Melbourne, Hamer Hall.

London Contemporary Orchestra Textures Spitfire Audio User Manual Congratulations
LONDON CONTEMPORARY ORCHESTRA TEXTURES SPITFIRE AUDIO USER MANUAL CONGRATULATIONS Thank you for purchasing Spitfire Audio - London Contemporary Orchestra Textures. Our second collaborative venture with the internationally-acclaimed London Contemporary Orchestra took us to an awe-inspiring aircraft hangar for a re- cording process like no other. Together we have created a completely unique, never-before-sampled sound palette — a sophisticated collection of constantly evolving organic textures, formed by layering unexpected combinations of instru- ments (from tuned wine glasses, to felt piano to voices). In applying the signature workshopping, performance styles and innovative techniques that have made the LCO so sought after, we have produced textures made up of indefinable, fas- cinating sounds. To capture these textures, we needed a space with unparalleled acoustics, which led us to the most un- conventional recording space in Spitfire’s eleven year sampling history — a cavernous aircraft hangar in Suffolk, England, with a remarkable 10 second reverb tail — adding incredible resonance to each note. Enhanced with our unique Evo Grid technology and mixed by renowned mix engineer, Joe Rubel, we give you access to a cutting edge, inspiring collection of instantly playable, spellbinding textures which will add incredible depth and colour to your composition.

There Will Be Blood director / writer Paul Thomas Anderson said of 2001: A Space Odyssey, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year: “It’s so hard to do anything that doesn’t owe some kind of debt to what Stanley Kubrick did with music in movies.” Actor and Philharmonic Board Member Alec Baldwin returns as Artistic Advisor of The Art of the Score, which explores some of the most distinctive uses of music in film. “The Art of the Score demonstrates how scoring illuminates film,” said Alec Baldwin, the series’ Artistic Advisor. “Just take the opening sequence of 2001, ‘The Dawn of Man,’ which never ceases to amaze and unsettle me — apes on the verge of the Homo sapiens era experience God or ‘Genius’ or some such inspiration.

London Contemporary Orchestra
1 BIOGRAPHY _________________________________________________________________________ Uèle Lamore - a 26 year old franco-american - is a conductor, composer and arranger. She is specialized in the mixing of orchestral and acoustic textures with modular, electronic and synthetic elements. Non-affiliated to classical music, she likes to dive into the fields of composition and arranging through many musical styles: electro, new wave, rock, techno, minimal, neo-soul and many more that are left to explore leaving an infinite range of possibilities. She hence developed a unique and recognizable sound signature that is cherished by many artists and promoters (Le Printemps de Bourges, Festival de Carthage, Theatre du Chatelet, FGO Barbara Center) as well as movie directors. Uèle Lamore studied guitar at Musicians Institute, and after her graduation completed her studies with a degree in composition and conducting that she received from Berklee College of Music in 2016. She then followed an apprenticeship amongst Jules Buckley’s Metropole Orkest and Heritage Orchestra. She has collaborated with many artists, from Etienne Daho to Agar Agar or Grand Blanc, Emel Mathlouthi to Hugo Lx or Mad Rey... The projects range from specific commissions to full arrangement of albums or EP’s as well as special orchestral projects for festivals. Uèle Lamore also works on original compositions for different medias, ranging from movies to documentaries (she nurishes a passion for nature and animal documentaries), ballets or even video game scoring (she is a true gamer at heart). Uèle Lamore is the founder of Orchestre Orage, the first orchestra specialized in collaborations and special creations with non-classicaly affiliated artists.
