Programme:
Giacinto Scelsi: Tre Pezzi
Scott McLaughlin: Repetition weaves difference weaves repetition (and so on)
Mary Jane Leach: Dowland's Tears
Lucy Havelock: Improvisation / new work
Lucy Havelock is a saxophonist/composer/improviser originally from Manchester, currently based in London. Lucy explores microtonality and timbre through experiments in looping, weaving, and pedalling. Her practice relies heavily on the boundaries of the saxophone, and the limits of sound production using a breath-controlled instrument and human body. She will perform music by Giacinto Scelsi, Scott McLaughlin, and Mary Jane Leach alongside a set of newly worked/ improvised music from her upcoming album.
