Three Hundred and Thirty Three: Part Two | Daisy Dickinson + Simon Fisher Turner

Описание: For Part II of Three Hundred and Thirty Three, a triptych of films set in and around the ancient sites and nature of the North East of England, visual artist Daisy Dickinson has teamed up with Ivor Novello winning composer and former Derek Jarman collaborator, Simon Fisher Turner. Working with Royal Northern Sinfonia, they have created an original score developed and recorded at The Glasshouse.

In their words:
"The film sees North East based performer and composer Kiik Amor and Japanese performance artist Junya Ishii move through a series of water rituals to summon the powers of nature from waterfalls, prehistoric cup and ring markings, Neolithic rocks and ancient stone circles in and around the Northumbrian landscape.

Many of the cup and ring markings are thought to date back almost 4000 years to Neolithic times, when it’s widely believed that our ancestors felt that all the elements of the natural world had self consciousness. Here we see the performers emulate the ancient spirals and water forces through body markings and movements."

Film: Daisy Dickinson
Composer: Simon Fisher Turner
Performed by Royal Northern Sinfonia
Cast: Kiik Amor and Junya Ishii

Co-produced and co-commissioned by Mediale and The Glasshouse International Centre for Music.

About Three Hundred and Thirty Three
How deep does our connection to music run?

Three Hundred and Thirty Three by visual artist Daisy Dickinson is a triptych of films set in and around the ancient sites and nature of the North East of England. Co-commissioned by The Glasshouse and Mediale, and co-produced by From the Other, we wanted to create something that dug deep into some of the themes that came out of recent conversations we’ve had with audiences about the role music plays in our lives. The stories we heard spoke of music that creates bonds, uncovers and intensifies emotions of all kinds, and helps us form the deepest memories.

Music lives and grows here - and has done for generations. Daisy took this idea and ran. All the way back to our ancient landscapes in the North East. A place where music seems to come from the stones and the forests themselves. And where haunting figures remind us of what came before, but still remains.

Filmed on location around the North East including Duddo Five Stones, The Blue Lagoon in Hexham, High Force and Low Force Waterfalls, Lordenshaw Stone Circles, Roughting Linn Cup and Ring Markings, Doddington Moor and Bamburgh Castle.

The Glasshouse is a home for live music lovers.

It’s a place where you can hear rock legends or pop icons on the same night as folk trios or opera singers. Where new musicians are nurtured and showcased on the same stages as platinum-selling performers. And where youth choirs and tambourine-shaking toddlers practise in the same spaces as our acclaimed orchestra, Royal Northern Sinfonia.

Music lives and grows here.
