Perpetual Light
Labels:
preview
If, like me, you've been curious as to whether performances in the tunnels under the Old Vic can work, and what it would be like to do a musical performance there, then here is your chance. On Saturday 4th June, the choir Londinium is performing a new piece by Jessica Curry, Perpetual Light, which involves a film and installation by Jo Fairfax. The work remembers those who lost their lives in nuclear conflicts. Curry's website describes her as a composer for games, virtual-worlds and unusual real-world spaces!

I had the pleasure of being one of the singers in the Perpetual Light premiere - can't thank Jessica Curry enough for her beautiful, emotive music and the opportunity to sing it such an amazing place. The review at bachtrack gives some feeling for just how fantastic a venue it can be for the right work!
