Upcoming projects include a series of soundwalks commissioned by Taigh Chearsabhagh Museum and Arts Centre, and a new work for contrabass clarinettist Sarah Watts, that will premiere in 2024.
I’m delighted to announce my soundwalk Orasaigh has been nominated for an Ivor Novello Award for Best Sound Art at this year’s Ivor Novello Classical Awards. Commissioned by Taigh Chearsabhagh Museum & Arts Centre, this 45-minute acousmatic soundwalk features poet Steve Ely reading his eponymous poem inspired by the landscape of the South Uist tidal island of Orasaigh. Mapped to a coastal walk around the island, this binaural work features original compositions with soundscapes captured on location in surround sound.
