Fusing together an eclectic mix of classical, electronic, jazz and contemporary music, the British duo New Noise was formed at the turn of the millennium by oboist Janey Miller and percussionist Joby Burgess. New Noise has to date commissioned more than fifty pieces, working with a diverse range of artists including David Bedford, Donnacha Dennehy, Sam Hayden, Simon Holt, Katharine Norman, Nigel Osborne, Howard Skempton and Andy Sheppard. They regularly collaborate with sound designer Matthew Fairclough and trombonist John Kenny, and in 2008 brought together a host of international talent to perform 'Cross Talk', originally programmed to celebrate the 80th birthday of Karlheinz Stockhausen. New Noise has performed throughout the UK including many of the country's leading festivals and venues. Further afield they have performed in the United States and Australia, and their recordings are regularly broadcast around the world. Many of New Noise's performances are supported by education events, and the duo regularly lead composition and performance workshops; from 2001 to 2005 New Noise was ensemble in residence at the Goldsmiths College University of London Electronic Music Studios. |

Subcollection: Piano CANTABILE - The London Quartet - release their new album on Champs Hill Records - Here with Special Digital Bonus Track - Flash Bang Wallop!
Well known as wonderful entertainers, the four singers of Cantabile here share some more serious and hauntingly beautiful songs.
Released in 2014, the 100th anniversary of the start of "The Great War", this is a programme sung from the heart, inspired by the dual themes of love and of war.
The disc seeks to capture the heartfelt emotion of the time: young men sent off to the front, and those they left behind.
Featuring works from 17 composers, both a cappella songs and a number accompanied by the renowned pianist Malcolm Martineau.
Amongst the 18 songs on this disc are Elgar's As Torrents In Summer, Poulenc's Bleuet, Vaughan Williams' Silent Noon, Bridge's The Last Invocation, and many other achingly beautiful songs, with music by Haydn, Barley, Pearsall, Chopin and Quilter and others. |
