*Commissioned by Schlossmediale Werdenberg, Switzerland.
A solo performance from Breton piper, Erwan Keravec, featuring new works by German composer Heiner Goebbels and French composer Éliane Radigue as well as Two Pages, an adaptation of Philip Glass' work for bagpipes in C.
Erwan Keravec is a highland bagpiper, composer and improviser. In seeking out the more unusual sounds, and ways of playing and listening to his instrument, far from its original cultural setting, he is exploring improvised music, free and ‘noise’ jazz, and establishing a repertoire of contemporary music for solo pipes.
This concert will be broadcast by BBC Radio 3 at a later date.
