In November 2024, me and my pal and colleague sound designer and composer Pippa Murphy convened the inaugural Dark Matter Choir for a special concert at Kings Place in London called Sing to the Dark. In collaboration with our bandmates Corrina Hewat (harp, voice, co-leading of choir) and almighty multi-instrumentalist Chris Vatalaro, we worked across two and half days of intensive learning and rehearsal with 80 willing singers of mixed ability, experience and confidence from across the UK. And by the time our Sunday evening show arrived, we were a rather beautiful living, breathing musical organism. This bespoke choir filled three quarters of the upper balcony of this wonderful venue, blurring the line between audience and participant.
And together we sang our hearts to all dark matter (there’s a lot of out there, and in here …)
It was an enormous labour of love and craft (and I’ve genuinely learned so much from it about music and life). One day, perhaps, we’ll reprise it …
For now, huge belated thanks to everyone who supported on the way, not least Rosie Chapman, former Artistic Director at Kings Place, and her team at the time.
Filmmaker Sandy Butler demonstrates here just how lucky we were to be part of this experience.
