Two Birmingham-based musicians create their spacious, evolving soundscapes as part of these freely improvised filmed sessions
Here’s another highly interactive live session curated and presented by Fizzle and TDE Promotions with violinist Sarah Farmer and electronics/soundscape artist Annie Mahtani. Promoter Tony Dudley-Evans introduces this latest film:
“This video features two players on the Birmingham improv scene: violinist Sarah Farmer and Annie Mahtani on laptop. Annie had prepared a number of soundscapes for the session taken from recordings while on a visit to The Azores. She had shared these with Sarah before the recording and Sarah had worked out a broad strategy of how to respond to them. Then in the studio - the excellent Sansom Studios - they improvised an engaging 40-minute set full of beauty. They also answer questions about their approach and their careers.”
