Thursday 8 December 2016, 7.30pm, The Old Church, Stoke Newington
Please note that this event does not take place in the Cafe.
For the third night of her reisdency, Irish composer and performer, Áine O'Dwyer presents a very special one-off performance in the stunning setting of the Stoke Newington Old Church - one of the oldest churches in London. Áine will be performing throughout the space and on the church's own organ.
O’Dwyer is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is informed by both the conceptual concerns of sound art and traditional composition techniques, embracing the broader aesthetics of sound and its relationship to environment. She has created works for large-scale and intimate settings that allow for both planned and unplanned compositions to co-exist in live situ. Recent works include 'Poems for Daedalus’ , a series of site-specific performances developed in Athens 2018; the book 'Poems for play', a collection of scores for a Jesuit monastery; 'Accompaniment for Captives’ , a performance for two fishing boats; 'Performance for Live Stream' (Cafe OTO, 2021), an audio-visual work; 'Song of Place' (2022) a street opera staged in Bristol suburbia and ‘Sing in the Dark’ ( 2024 ) a live vocal performance for acousmonium.
