Event Details
Grand Silence uses as its departure point Jonty Semper’s landmark recording, Kenotaphion. In Kenotaphion, Semper spent four years collecting every surviving recording of the two-minute silences at the Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday ceremonies at the Cenotaph in London. The earliest is from a British Movie-tone newsreel of 1929.
Derek Pascoe, Brad Cameron and Gabriella Smart have created an hour-long improvisation exploring the unfolding qualities of sound, within this emotive and charged political context.
