Haunted Textures

Corey Mwamba presents new improvised music made with haunting textures, from the memory of decades-old performances to futuristic electronic whispers.

Corey Mwamba presents the best in new improvised music.

Damon Smith and Sarah Ruth Alexandra pay homage to the late bassist Ben Patterson with a special duo set inspired by a 1961 performance. A celebrated experimentalist, Patterson was one of the founders of the radical Fluxus movement.

Mexican group Cataratas del Niágara - featuring double bassist and improviser, Adriana Camacho - create an evocative world of mysterious field recordings and distortion charged by electronics.

Elsewhere in the programme, a skronking, squalling collaboration from Dirk Serries, Cath Roberts and Tullis Rennie. Together they play with texture and space to beguiling effect.
