10 years ago, I recorded some piano improvisations with weather on my mind. This one is for all us cloud-gazers. And you know what they say about weather ... it always changes ...

Snorri Hallgrímsson - Be Still, My Tongue

Emmy award-winning composer Michael Price will release Tender Symmetry, his second album with Erased Tapes, on August 31st 2018. The ambitious musical project takes in a series of iconic National Trust locations across England as its inspiration, turning them into unlikely recording spaces. Michael and a host of musicians and collaborators — including soprano Grace Davidson (featured on Max Richter’s Sleep) and Shards (the choir on Nils Frahm’s All Melody) — travelled across the country in pursuit of places far removed from the traditional recording studio to create seven unique and moving pieces.

The diversity of Michael Price’s choices ranges from the ruins of Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire to the Fan Bay WWII shelter, cut deep into the chalk cliffs of Dover. All owned by the National Trust save one, each venue became both the inspiration and the recording studio for Michael Price and his accompaniment of renowned musical ensembles, choirs and soloists. 

While each piece of music is named after the location in which it was created, William Blake’s Songs of Innocence and Experience courses through them as well. Soprano Grace Davidson sings Blake’s poignant words about nature, religion and the industrial revolution on several of the pieces including the astoundingly beautiful album closer Shade Of Dreams, written after the birth of Michael’s daughter. “The final piece, Shade of Dreams, is part of a group of pieces I wrote for the birth of our daughter, Emilie. It, like all the works on the album, takes its text from William Blake’s Songs of Innocence and Experience, in this case, A Cradle Song. As much as Tender Symmetry is about the past, it is firmly about the future, and all our of shared futures.”

Alongside soprano Grace Davidson and Shards choir, other performers include virtuoso cellist Peter Gregson, new music experimentalists Immix Ensemble and Manchester Collective. Tender Symmetry will be available worldwide on LP, CD and digitally, including selected National Trust shops, on August 31st 2018. Michael Price will premiere Tender Symmetry live at London’s Kings Place on September 6th.

Michael Price - Shade Of Dreams

“If the essay film has become a trope…and these strategies that we’re using have become formulaic, how do we negotiate our way through that?” - Gavin Hipkins. In the fourth of our conversation series artists Sonya Lacey and Gavin Hipkins come together to discuss working methodologies, a shared interest in failed modernist utopias, and the moving image as a distribution mode of sculpture. Hosted by Mark Amery.

Points of Discussion:

00:00: Introductions

1:00 SL: on recent residency in Singapore researching Cambodian print cultures

2:30 GH: on recent survey at Dowse Art Museum, and sequel to The Homely at City Gallery Wellington, discusses spending time with the work whilst ‘in exhibition form’

3:55 GH: on shift from photography to film, formal and thematic synergies between the two mediums

6.00 SL: on making moving images from a design and sculpture background. Discusses the making of Newspaper for Vignelli (2015); and making films as an act of distribution for the sculptural object

7:50 GH: engagement with modernism and failed utopias, unrealized and realized projects.

9:32 GH: on SL’s practice of ‘making and staging’, makes comparison with Thomas Demand’s use of miniature / maquette and use of stills as means to document; the idea of ‘metamorphosis’

10:20 GH: asks SL about her CIRCUIT commissioned work By Sea (2015), describes it as ‘exquisite’ but “I don’t understand the connection to the commission”. Mentions his own commission in response to the writing of Julian Dashper.

11:00: SL: on the geometry and architecture Joanna Paul’s letterforms and poems as inspiration for By Sea. Question of how dependent to be on the source material.

13:00 MA: What is the resonance of these failed utopias today? GH: On City of Tomorrow (2017), inspired by Courbisier’s architectural vision of Chandigargh. Discusses Leisure Valley (2014) and The Port (2014).

16:00 SL: Modernist history as ‘foil’ in her work, modernist design as ‘pure transmission of content’. Discusses Infinitesmals (2016) - ‘Almost like making the found object I wish existed’.

18:00 SL: Discusses making work for cinema context versus installation. Use of script /text for By Sea to bring ‘sense of intimacy’.

20:50: GH: describes shared ‘essayistic’ practice with SL. “If the essay film has become a trope…and these strategies that we’re using have become formulaic, how do we negotiate our way through that?”

22:00 GH: asks SL about use of the voice in her work Infinitesimals - “Within the heterotopian space what does it mean for (the actor/readers) voice to be present?”

24:30 SL: Discusses working a Japanese New Zealander to voice By Sea. Discusses attempt to use subtitles.

26:15 SL & GH: Discusses working with actors for Erewhon (2014). Use of visual prompts. GH on working with reader Mia Blake.

Discusses Courtenay Place commissions and new negotiation of collaboration between Lightreading and others.

35:13: GH: on working with Karl Fritsch and giving up authorship. On recent soundtrack for City of Tomorrow by Torben Tilly, and presenting the audio in an installation context. Activating a single channel work through performance.

"That is what I'm looking for in this music: a little space for myself, and you hopefully, where we can go and forget about all the other things." @snorrihallgrimsson on his new EP Landbrot I, out wherever you listen to music : orcd.co/landbrot-i

I am a writer, sound artist/composer and curator based in Luxembourg. I am interested in expanding the language of art across media, to create a kind of network of experience, memory and affect. Through my work I seek a personal kind of geography, recollected and recomposed--sometimes by city--in sound and text. Drawing on years of classical training in musicianship and composition, along with a love of a broad range of instrumental works, I hope to create a broader world of music and memory for myself, and, perhaps, for others.
