NYX presents the London premiere of their new choral work, developed as part of multi-artform initiative Southbank Centre Studio in 2023.
Performing visceral compositions by choir leader Sian O’Gorman, NYX tests the limits of organic and synthetic modulation to explore the entire spectrum of collective voice as an instrument. Shifting through portals of sounding bodies and electronics, NYX’s emotive music moves like a film score between otherworldly chorus, ambient dreamscapes, charged harmonics, guttural bass lines and folk song.
In the second half of the double bill, Eno plays solo piano, as well as being joined by his daughter, Cecily Eno, on vocals, a string quintet and guitar, and with an arresting backdrop of filmic visuals. Along with his new album, which describes the world in a dozen musical watercolours based on spontaneous sketches, Eno performs highlights from his repertoire.
Presented in partnership with Eat Your Own Ears
