Ball of Confusion

Reminded of the Different Trains performance I attended EIGHT YEARS AGO at historic (1836) Edge Hill Station. The composer, Steve Reich, made a brief appearance at the end. Bill Morrison’s specially compiled video, some of it partially degraded, added a lot to the overall effect, plus the passing of actual trains. Delighted to find video of the performance which gives some impression of what it was like being there. A little more background from Parr Street Studios on context and pre-recorded elements. The BBC report also has brief footage.🎵

No idea where those eight years went.

Very much enjoyed Elizabeth Alker’s Radio 3 Unclassified prog devoted (mostly) to Erland Cooper. One to come back to for the next month or so. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/pl… 🎵

The orchestral version of Lord it’s a Feeling (Explicit) by London Grammar is glorious www.youtube.com/watch 🎵
