James Weeks: weatherworld quartets

  • Performance
Book

weatherworld quartets is a cycle of six quartets, each around 10 minutes,exploring our sensory and bodily experience of the outdoors - the ‘weatherworld’. Their sonic landscape is pervaded by rain and wind, sounding out the surfaces and bodies of the instruments in a shifting weave of harmonics, open strings and unpitched noise; sustained, glanced, brushed, tapped. In two quartets the bow is replaced by plant materials – fern fronds and cypress sprigs – heightening the explorationof an intimate, immersed way of being in the natural world.

Duration

6-7pm
