New Music Biennial: '13 Vices' a multi-dimensional fusion of contemporary music, theatre and poetry from collaborators Brian Irvine and Jennifer Walshe
Purcell Room at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre
Dip a toe into a selection of weird, dark, humorous and exotic vices in this multi-dimensional fusion of contemporary music, theatre and poetry.
First performed in 2015, the seed was planted many years before when Brian Irvine chanced upon sculptures by Mihail Chemiakin in Moscow. The collection of slightly grotesque figures, each representing a particular adult vice that is damaging to children, was the springboard to the project.
It would eventually become, in Irvine’s words, ‘a wonderfully messy, chopped up, beautiful, bewitching cocktail of the best people making the best sounds and is a project that myself, collaborator Jennifer (Walshe) and all the gang are very proud of!’
The piece features Red Note Ensemble, Paul Dunmall, Paul Rogers and Mark Sanders.
