This 3rd installment of ‘Chamber Music’ celebrates the imminent release of nonclassical recording's 2nd CD & 12": GéNIA “John Richards’ Suite for Piano & Electronics”
GéNIA is one of the most uncompromising, yet open-minded Virtuoso Pianists active in London today. John Richards’ HEAVY compsition comes across like a contemporary classical version of industrial noise music, the 2nd movement has so much more attitude than any band from the current, (embarassing) punk-revival, it uses electronic sounds that are generated by feedback loops & come out a small speaker placed inside the piano... The CD release will feature remixes from: techno-visionary: Tim Wright (aka Tubejerk), Derailer [John Matthias (Ninja Tunes), David & Andy Prior], Max De Wardener (Accidental), Vex’d (planet mu), The EarlyMan (nonstop), and G. Prokofiev (nonclassical) to be previewed on the night.

Also, catch THE String Quartet of the moment, The Elysian Quartet, playing where they feel most at home, in a nightclub, premiering Gabriel Prokofiev's String Quartet No2, which takes its musical inspiration from both classical & electronic dance music, so that styles such as Alberti bass come face to face with "house" hi-hat patterns & Techno "blips" [it was commisioned by the Elsyian Quartet & the PRS foundation]. The Elysian's will also be playing Max De Wardener’s sublime new composition for Quartet.

Sounds like a very interesting night. Unfortunately I won't be around to see it, but would be interested in hearing how it goes.

Let us know if there's gonna be another one as well.
