Love this new Elaine Mitchener solo album. Teeming forests of multitracked vocal noises and words. Tender and fierce. Like 3D sound poetry. elainemitchener.bandcamp.com/album/solo-thr…
Back in 2006, artist Sandrine Nicoletta asked me & four other vocalists to record her beautiful text scores - each of us performing without hearing the others, mostly without words. It was a sound installation, but there's now a vinyl / download release: kohlhaas.bandcamp.com/album/interplay
Fellow weird broadcasting fans - BBC Radio 4 Extra is at this moment broadcasting Andrew Sachs' 1978 binaural radio play 'The Revenge', which comprises sound effects and actors, but no dialogue at all. It's gripping... bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00…
🌿 A delight to share The Language of Flowers for the first time in Norwich last night, and premiere two beautiful new works by Dr Leo Chadburn (Flower Dictionary) and Laura Cannell (For The Plants That Bind Us).
Same tomorrow in Oxford!
Music at Oxford

My new commission 'FOR THE PLANTS THAT BIND US' will be performed: Norwich 14th | Oxford 16 March by The Marian Consort Co-commissioned by The Marian Consort & Cheltenham Music Festival Cheltenham Festivals + Dr Leo Chadburn New ‘Flower Dictionary’. @jejhardie Tix marianconsort.co.uk/concerts
So, I'm currently working on a new album and an EP project. If you buy anything from my back catalogue, proceeds go towards funding them. I'm always very grateful for any purchases; my record label is entirely DIY (staff = me alone). X x #BandcampFriday leochadburn.bandcamp.com
Really looking forward to these gigs next month, featuring a new piece 'Flower Dictionary' by me, plus music by the wonderful Laura Cannell and some Renaissance heartbreakers. The Marian Consort really are amazing. See you in Norwich and/or Oxford...
Just tidying away the hundreds of sheets of paper & sticky notes that were the sketches for 'English Dancing Master', my new piece premiered by PhaedraEnsemble last weekend. Thanks a million to them, and to everyone who came down and said such nice things about it afterwards. X
A 'moment' from the score of my big new piece for string quartet and disembodied voices, 'English Dancing Master'. Come and hear PhaedraEnsemble play it at Cafe OTO this Sunday, 3rd December, alongside music by Cassandra Miller and Gavin Bryars. Tickets: cafeoto.co.uk/events/phaedra…
I've done a fair bit of writing about music in the last 20 years, but none of it has ever been read out on the radio before! Thanks for the kind words and your lovely voice kate molleson (as part of this great Gavin-Bryars-centric show, 12 minutes in...) bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
