Sunday 12th April 2020 (starting this afternoon)
Time: 13:00 to 14:00 (1 hour long)
Motion and Suspension. Series 1, episode 1.
A three-part series exploring strong voices in string playing across a range of time periods and genres, hosted by viola da gamba player Liam Byrne. The viola da gamba became virtually extinct at the end of the 18th century and as such the aural lineage of performers has been severed. Part of Liam's practice is to listen to a wide variety of string voices that do have that historical continuity, from Appalachian folk to Indian classical music. Across this series, Liam shares his favourite discoveries with each episode focusing on a common energy, vibe or mood. In this opening episode it's the feeling of motion and suspension, featuring a 17th-century Italian dance played on period instruments; a traditional Irish sean-nós song rearranged for cello with haunting concertina-like harmonics; and the fiddle player Martin Hayes playing a fast jig with exquisite and effortless sweetness.
