Choir Loops by Stella Franke
Choir Loops is a cycle of short pieces by Stella Franke combining recorded tape loops with live choir performance. The choir is made up of 7 singers from across the Electronic & Produced Music department: Evgenia Isachenko, Dáire Toal, Hani Hooper, Annie Chown, Sylvain Murphy, Tommy Abrey and Stella Franke.
Experience the innovative sound of Guildhall School’s Live Electronics Orchestra as they push the boundaries of music with creative scores, evolving compositions and somatic practices. This unique performance explores themes of intimacy, vulnerability, and interdependence, highlighting the dynamic connections between the performers. The group aims to subvert traditional power dynamics between composer, conductor, performer, musical material and score. By conjuring tangible physical and emotional states through experimental forms and collectively constructed timbres, they will create rich sound worlds for both the audience and performers to immerse themselves in.
In FANTASY the Live Electronics Orchestra is joined by dancers Alek Walent, Serra Kösebay and Gian Singh Sanghera-warren forming one sensitive interdisciplinary ensemble conjuring collective space to dream. Performers support each other to explore and express various layers and textures of the imaginal, as it shape-shifts in real-time. The show will be introduced by performance artist and DJ Lewis G Burton.
