Tectonics 2022 TECTONICS: Joanna Ward / Douglas R Ewart

Location: Old Fruitmarket, Glasgow City Halls

In her own words, Joanna Ward’s work experiments ‘with scores and with sound, and her practice ranges across genre and between media, usually in collaboration with other performers, artists and thinkers.’ Here the BBC SSO give the World Premiere of her new BBC commission. Douglas Ewart’s Red Hills, is the title track from his 1983 album. Originally written for his Clarinet Choir, it’s performed here by members of the Glasgow Improvisers Orchestra. Ewart himself closes the festival on Sunday night in performance with Joëlle Léandre.
