With the Beatles


Laurence Lane - With The Beatles.

 

With The Beatles is a solo performance using a hand drawn copy of the record sleeve of The Beatles second long player With The Beatles, released in 1964 and a selection of Beatles 7’’ singles.

Some small changes have been made in my rendering of the sleeve, the main difference is that where the sleeve notes are on the original sleeve I have substituted a personal anecdote relating to my uncle Douglas.

For the performance I will read the text and top and tail it with some fractured excerpts from Beatles records that my uncle gave me.

Kerry Firth

Inspired by the likes of Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Woody Guthrie, I will perform a selection of poignant American traditional folk ballads. I will be focusing in particular on those songs in which women are the protagonists, as their emotional content is especially resonating.

Nina Whiteman is known for her dynamic and imaginative interpretations of contemporary vocal music. She returns to A Curious Night with a performance of a selection from Georges Aperghis' Récitations - composed in 1977 for actress Martine Viard, the pieces revolve around the idea of repetition, particularly in terms of learning and perfecting text for a performance. But there's a twist: the pieces are composed of a labyrinth of non-words, and include everyday vocal sounds such as coughs and sighs; and the performer has extensive                                                       freedom in the characterisation of the music.

Katy Morrison:
                               'PoP Music' ~ A 12" Vinyl to be heard . . .

"Created using a selection of electronically modified toys from the 1990's, Pop Music exists as a sound composition and ultimately a performance by these objects as they live out their new purpose and function. The personal and cultural memories of these objects are now trapped within the record, which due to the nature of its production has been given a lifespan, as the more the record is played the further away from its original form it becomes.
Thus, this piece becomes a memory in its own right, as it presents a new experience and relationship with the toys used. "
