Echoes Of The Shattered Ring

A drift through the music of the Exe in Exeter. Otherworldly sounds of riverweed creatures and creaking, sighing, chomping fish mix with sounds from the human world. Human musicians, scientists, listeners and deep time historians tend the river, join its sleepy flow and attempt to hear the river’s original voice. Composed by Emma Welton with river and human residents. 
Followed by a conversation, where Paula Crutchlow talks with Emma about the process and workshops involved in creating this new work. Includes field recordings made around the river Exe.
We recommend using headphones when listening to this work.

Emma Welton is a composer, sound artist and violinist who works with musicians, other artists and communities to create new work, often springing from shared listening. She loves to work outdoors.

Born in Piacenza, he began his first piano studies at an early age. He enrolled at the Nicolini Conservatory where he studied composition with Carlo Alessandro Landini and Barbara Rettagliati.
During his studies, he mainly focuses on the German repertoire, with particular attention to the symphonic works and musical theater of authors of the late 1800s and 1900s.
As a composer he attended the masterclass held by Aureliano Cattaneo, Giorgio Colombo Taccani and Ivan Fedele with whom he deepened the musical analysis and composition.
His Vier frühe Lieder and Hölderlin-Lieder were premiered in Piacenza in April 2019 and then resumed in Parma (May 2019) and Milan (September 2019) and again in Piacenza (2021), while his Sonata for piano "Verklärung" (2019/2020) obtained in its preliminary form a mention at the International Composition Competition "Città di Albenga" and in the final form the second prize at the Alberghini Prize and was registered and published in the spring of 2021 by the Conservatory of music Giuseppe Nicolini. This score was chosen to be included in a permanent installation created for the Piacenza Musica 2021 Festival.
In 2022 the Fondazione dei Teatri di Piacenza dedicated a monographic concert to him during the Festival MusicMediale. Among other he collaborated with Fondazione Piseri, Fondazione di Piacenza e Vigevano, NoMus and Società del Quartetto di Milano.
He studied orchestral conducting with Ennio Nicotra.
Winner of the Bruno Bettinelli Prize for composition, his works are published by the Universal Edition.

Laura Marconi was born in Turin (Italy) in 1989 and studied piano, composition and choral conducting. She graduated in
composition at the G. Verdi Conservatory of Turin with the highest honours and is currently attending a Konzertexamen in
composition at the R. Schumann Conservatory of Düsseldorf. She studied composition with G. Colombo Taccani, A. Colla and J.
Sanchez-Verdù and she attended master-classes and lectures with P. Valtinoni, A. Solbiati, F. Lévy. Her music has
been performed in Italy an abroad by ensembles such as Eos Ensemble, Trio Astra, TorinoVocalEnsemble, RSH Vokalensemble, G.
Verdi Chamber Choir, Mobile Beats Ensemble and by performer such Mark Broschinsky, Seitaro Ishikawa, Rohan de Saram, among others.
In 2014 she won the First Prize and the Inaudita Musica Prize at the Festival Fiati International Competition (Novara), in 2016 she's
selected as a finalist composer at the Areon Flutes International Competition (San Francisco) and her piece for two violins is selected
at the Risuonanze Call for Scores (Trieste); in 2017 her piece for solo trombone is premiered at the Mise-en Ensemble Festival
(NYC) and she was among the finalists in Kaleidoscope Orchestra Call for Scores with her piece Microdanza. She received a commission for an experimental opera for a cappella choir, that will be performed by conductor C. Pavese and CoroG in 2019.
Laura's music is sometimes about the relationship between silences and sounds, with delicate harmonic fluctuation and meditative atmosphere; sometimes about powerful and dramatic internal struggles, where the colours and gestures become more vivid and the  contrast more violent. She's always looking for connections between different kinds of art such as poetry, drawing, painting and music. She often uses improvisation and non-traditional notation in her scores in order to provide more freedom and challenge to the performer and the public.
