    I got to experience the new Concrete Voids system at the Queen Elizabeth Hall last night - no photos but this will give you an idea of what it’s about.

    Obscure instruments, clever (but not in your face) technical stuff, and 80+ speakers hidden in (you guessed it) concrete voids, turning the building into a living instrument was quite an experience. In their different ways Liam Byrne, Cleek Schrey and Peter Gregson created something fun and exciting - PG and LB both spoke about chipping away at the wall that divides performers and audiences, and doing something more immersive.

    The whole idea is really cool and I’ll be looking out for future events exploring the possibilities of the new system.

    If anyone’s interested, this is the official info about the programme:

    Composer and cellist Peter Gregson’s new work for cello, synthesisers and string ensemble, developed in collaboration with Brett Cox and Aurora Orchestra, uses the form of the building to bring the audience inside the music.

    Meanwhile, viola da gamba player Liam Byrne and fiddler Cleek Schrey, both rooted in historical music traditions, join forces with a performance blending composition, improvisation and electronic music, building multi-dimensional soundscapes in real-time. Using a viola da gamba and hardanger d’amore (violin with sympathetic strings), they explore time and space, transforming the Queen Elizabeth Hall with atmospheric, resonant sound.

    Concrete Voids, conceived by Southbank Centre Sound Technician Tony Birch, is a custom-built system of over 80 hidden speakers, turning the Queen Elizabeth Hall into a 3D sound instrument. It allows artists to manipulate sound throughout the space, creating rich, immersive experiences.

      Legend indeed. But incredibly humble. One of the most understated and important musicians of her generation.

              So true. She almost appeared a bit shy. Very nice, smiling all the time.

                I was fortunate enough to see her interviewed live at a theatre as well as at the Barbican for the current tour.

                It is clear that she is not seeking celebrity, she is just doing her art.

                I saw Beth Gibbons last year and she was the same. It felt like they had to drag her onto the stage at gun point.

                              @Freeman what an incredible feeling!

                              My buddy from work and I went to see Helmet the other day. He was talking about upcoming shows he was excited about and he mentioned “Acres” was on his list. I told him about the Iron Heart connection. Must be so cool having such a large crowd song along to your songs!

                              In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                Are you in the music industry?

                                      Maybe two weeks. No @endo but still. 3/9 at Baltimore Soundstage. It’s literally around the corner from where we took @endo to brunch.

                                        @Bridger Thanks. I wish! Been into metal and hard rock for 50+ years so try to get to as many gigs as possible.
