Visible Cloaks Reassemblage
Visible Cloaks Reassemblage Visible Cloaks’ Reassemblage is a collection of delicately rendered passages of silence and sound that invokes – and invites - consciousness. The foundation of the duo’s second album is gently poured upon the ground their musical predecessors explored, using the materials of chance operations, MIDI “translation,” and other generative principles that favor inclusive musical environments over the narrowly constrained. In 2010, Spencer Doran, one part of Visible Cloaks alongside Ryan Carlile, prepared the first volume ofFairlights, Mallets, and Bamboo, a mixtape indicated by Doran as “an investigation into fourth-world undercurrents in Japanese ambient and pop music, years 1980 - 1986.” These mixes contextualized the outré orbit of Yellow Magic Orchestra-related solo projects and their abstract, radiant forays as forever futuristic modes of music. Reassemblage evokes similar musical futures celebrated on the Fairlights mixes, but does so observantly rather than reverently. The title Reassemblage, for example, is taken from a film essay byTrinh T. Minh-ha, which explores the impossibility of ascribing meaning to ethnographic images. The author aims to “speak nearby” rather than “speak about.” In other words, to embrace lapses of understanding, and realize that the impulse to map direct meaning across a cultural gap often results in further disconnect. In an effort to “speak nearby” rather than “speak about,” Visible Cloaks Track Listing RVNG Intl. filters and forms source material to become young again. Often the duo strip 1.

BBC Four Programme Information
SOUND OF CINEMA: THE MUSIC THAT MADE THE MOVIES BBC Four Programme Information Neil Brand presenter and composer said, “It's so fantastic that the BBC, the biggest producer of music content, is showing how music works for films this autumn with Sound of Cinema. Film scores demand an extraordinary degree of both musicianship and dramatic understanding on the part of their composers. Whilst creating potent, original music to synchronise exactly with the images, composers are also making that music as discreet, accessible and communicative as possible, so that it can speak to each and every one of us. Film music demands the highest standards of its composers, the insight to 'see' what is needed and come up with something new and original. With my series and the other content across the BBC’s Sound of Cinema season I hope that people will hear more in their movies than they ever thought possible.” Part 1: The Big Score In the first episode of a new series celebrating film music for BBC Four as part of a wider Sound of Cinema Season on the BBC, Neil Brand explores how the classic orchestral film score emerged and why it’s still going strong today. Neil begins by analysing John Barry's title music for the 1965 thriller The Ipcress File. Demonstrating how Barry incorporated the sounds of east European instruments and even a coffee grinder to capture a down at heel Cold War feel, Neil highlights how a great composer can add a whole new dimension to film. Music has been inextricably linked with cinema even since the days of the "silent era", when movie houses employed accompanists ranging from pianists to small orchestras. -
Bbc Radio 3 - Sounds of Shakespeare April – May 2016
BBC RADIO 3 - SOUNDS OF SHAKESPEARE APRIL – MAY 2016 MONDAY 18TH – FRIDAY 22ND APRIL Essential Classics Monday 18th - Friday 22nd April 0900 - 1200 In the week leading up to the Shakespeare 400 anniversary, the guest on Radio 3’s morning programme is Adrian Lester OBE, acclaimed for his performances as Henry V and Othello at the National Theatre – winning the Evening Standard Best Actor award. He’ll talk about Shakespeare, his life as an actor and choose some fascinating music. Producer: Sarah Devonald, Somethin’Else Composer of the Week Monday 18th - Friday 22nd April 1200 – 1300 William Byrd There is frustratingly little evidence that William Byrd was personally acquainted with his fellow Elizabethan, William Shakespeare. Although, a tantalising reference to “the bird of loudest lay” in Shakespeare’s sonnet, The Phoenix and the Turtle hints that they may have been more than mere contemporaries. As a Roman Catholic in Elizabethan England, William Byrd was persecuted by the state and often forced to tread a dangerous path between his personal convictions and his duty to the Queen. His musical talent and his strength of character enabled him not just to survive, but thrive. Despite his trials, he was, and continues to be, celebrated as the greatest British musician of his age. SOUNDS OF SHAKESPEARE LIVE 22nd – 24th April, Stratford-upon-Avon Radio 3 broadcasts live all weekend from its pop-up studio at the Royal Shakespeare Company’s The Other Place theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon and at venues across the town. Actors, musicians, poets, singers and orchestras perform a huge range of songs, film scores, jazz, chamber music, choral works and world music - all inspired by Shakespeare's works. -

Vi arbeider med kunstnere og kunstprosjekter som krysser grenser, og bringer internasjonal kunst til den norske kunstscenen. Zanele Muholi Somnyama IV, Oslo, 2015 2 2017 har vært et fantastisk spennende år for oss i TrAP. Vi har INNLEDNING hatt en strategisk prosess som har tvunget oss til å snakke grundig om organisasjonens hensikt og hvem den er til for. Vi av daglig leder har oppdaget interessante ideer gjennom prosjektet Nøkkel til byen som vi nå skal sette ut i livet. Dessuten har vi utviklet Hilde Maisey nye programfelt for oss, som filmvisninger, podkast og en avis, som gjør at vi har et bredere felt å utvikle prosjekter for. Størst glede kommer likevel fra opplevelsen av at det er en sterkere interesse for spørsmålene vi arbeider med. Vi har fått i oppdrag fra Kulturrådet å drive et nordisk nettverk for kunstmuseer i Danmark, Norge, Island, Sverige, Finland, Åland og Grønland, og utvikler et 2-årig samarbeid om strategier for publikumsutvikling. Med utgangspunkt i vårt prosjekt, Nøkkel til byen, prøver de respektive museene ut metoder for å nå et bredere publikum. Prosjektet munner ut i kreative prosjekter i lokale områder og i publiseringen av erfaringer, strategier og praktiske resultater. Midt i entusiasmen, er det samtidig urovekkende at mangfold igjen har blitt viktig å forsvare. -

But following this anniversary there is some sad news, with the recent passing of our President, Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon. Her energy, commitment and enthusiasm from the outset and throughout the evolution of the Festival have been fundamental to its success. The Duchess of Kent and I have seen the Festival grow from humble beginnings to an internationally renowned arts festival, having faced and overcome many obstacles along the way. Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon, can be justly proud of the Festival’s achievements. Her legacy must surely be a Festival that continues to flourish as we embark on the next forty years. www.newburyspringfestival.org.uk 1 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 2 Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon MBE Founder and President 1935 - 2019 2 box office 0845 5218 218 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 3 The Festival’s founder and president, Jeanie Countess of Carnarvon was a great and much loved lady who we will always remember for her inspirational support of Newbury Spring Festival and her gentle and gracious presence at so many events over the years. Her son Lord Carnarvon pays tribute to her with the following words. My darling mother’s lifelong interest in the arts and music started in her childhood in the USA. -

Denne skulle være en oppfølger av konferansen Språk og nasjonalisme i Norden, i regi av Nordplusnettverket Nordiska erfarenheter arrangert i Helsingfors i august samme år. Ideen var å samles om et hittil lite belyst fellesnordisk prosjekt, som både hadde en historisk og en kulturanalytisk dimmensjon. Ut fra disse kriteriene falt valget på musikk i Norden sett i et historisk og nasjonalt perspektiv, men med den viktige tilføyelse at det ikke skulle fokuseres snevert på den finkulturelle, klassiske musikken. Populærmusikken og folke- og spillemannsmusikken skulle også være representert, primært ut fra en betraktning om at også hverdagslivets "banale" nasjonalisme, som den kommer til uttrykk utenfor kunstmusikken, måtte tas med. Professor Nils Ivar Agøy foreslo at konferansen skulle arrangeres ved Høgskolen i Telemark (HiT), og slik ble det.
