New Gabriel Jackson
Labels:

Gabriel Jackson has a new piece being premiered by Red Note to open the 6th sound Festival in Aberdeen. Jackson's new work for strings is a joint commission from the Scottish contemporary music ensemble Red Note and sound festival. Jackson's piece is being given in a fascinating programme which includes Adams Shaker Loops and Gavin Bryars' Jesus Blood Never Failed Me Yet. The programme debuts in Aberdeen and then tours to Glasgow and Edinburgh. For those people living in the area, it will be a fascinating pairing of iconic pieces along with a welcome chance to hear Jackson in non-vocal mode.
