The One And The Many

Jennifer Lucy Allan shares ALT, a piece for nine alto saxes by Signe Emmeluth, specially recorded at Borealis festival in Bergen. Plus music from O Yama O and Tidiane Thiam.

Jennifer Lucy Allan shares an extract of ALT, a piece for nine alto saxes composed by Danish saxophonist and improviser Signe Emmeluth specially recorded at Borealis festival in Bergen, in March. Commissioned by the festival as the closing performance of its 2024 edition, ALT aims to explore how the gathering of many unique voices (Mette Rasmussen, Amalie Dahl, Lotte Anker, Isak HedtjΓ€rn, Klaus Holm, Kjetil MΓΈster, Heidi Kvelvane and Aksel RΓΈed) can lead to a kind of unison. As Signe says: β€œIt is the holistic, the interweaving of people, energies, sounds. It is a way of translating the individual into something social. An organism with different sections”. We also hear Anatomies, a piece from Calum Perrin commissioned by the Bristol-based disabled-led orchestra Paraorchestra, which revolves around their performance The Anatomy of the Orchestra, a concert-installation which takes place in the foyers of concert halls, with each musician on their own plinth.

Elsewhere in the show, Jennifer Lucy Allan picks new music from O Yama O (vocalists Rie Nakajima and Keiko Yamamoto, percussionist Marie Roux and violin player Billy Steiger) alongside new music from Guatemalan cellist and artist Mabe Fratti.
