Dido Remembered is for synthesizer and prerecorded sound. It is an aural visualization of Dido’s Lament.

Dido Remembered

Hi,

I suggest sampling, in this order:

The last few minutes of the second symphony (called here "Ambiguously Positive Ending"), or starting at about time 8:00 of that piece ("11022004").

The second or fourth movement of the quartet.

The intractable first symphony is probably NOT the best place to start although I love it and Joel Taylor's (Remaster)  take on it.   If you do dig into that piece, start with the second movement.   The third movement of the first symphony is probably my favorite of my musical children.

MARY JANE LEACH is a composer/performer whose work reveals a fascination with the physicality of sound, its acoustic properties and how they interact with space. In many of her works Leach creates an other-worldly sound environment using difference, combination, and interference tones; these are tones not actually sounded by the performers, but acoustic phenomena arising from Leach’s deft manipulation of intonation and timbral qualities: “an acoustic Through the Looking Glass world based on sound that the performer is not making.” (The New Yorker).
