Produced in partnership by NNSAC and originalprojects; YARMONICS is a free sonic art and new music festival that celebrates the sounds, people and places of Great Yarmouth. YARMONICS has invited a number of sound artists, musicians, writers and artists to create work that responds to specific spaces and places in Great Yarmouth, including CLIP who I’ll be joining for the day on Saturday 22 September 2018 to perform a version of Terry Riley’s “In C“.
“In C” is a response to the abstract academic serialist techniques devised by Schoenberg that dominated Western university composers for many decades and is often cited as the first minimalist composition. However, this performance has a twist – that twist being the performance venue, the venue being the actual sea.
