Rhodri Davies is performing the distinguished avant-garde composer Elaine Radigue's Occam I for solo harp on February 23rd at Beursschouwburg in Brussels (8:30 PM). Saxophonist John Butcher will then perform his own solo work, The Geometry of Sentiment, before he and Rhodri conclude the evening with a duo improvisation. For more details, click here.
Rhodri gave the world premiere of Radigue's composition in the summer of last year, at the Spitalfields Festival in London. One reviewer writes: "His journey up the harp, sounding out octaves, fifths and minor seconds with his two bows, unchained the hidden harmonics of these notes, the upper partials, and allowed them to engage in a most mesmerising celestial dance above our heads, a sort of musical aurora borealis..." .
