Serial Procrastinator

"Noirs" was inspired by the works of Chinese artist 于轶文 and conjures different shades and textures of black. Rather than treating it as an absence of colour, "Noirs" creates a musical blackness that hangs over a something that can only ever be faintly made out.  

Performed by the Oxford Philharmonic on 10th February 2018.
