DEEP MINIMALISM 2.0
Queen Elizabeth Hall – 3rd November 2019.
“Laura Cannell’s long-drawn studies of medieval folk fiddle and double pipe music, riffing on melodies which feel both close at hand and buried by stages of modernity.”
Laura Cannell creates a bridge between minimalist patterns and ancient sounds in music that brings together her own melodies, improvisation, and snippets of early and medieval music. The Quietus calls her ‘the queen of improvised location violin.’
