About

About the concert
Welcome to tonight’s sound lab concert presented by Edit-Point. It feels like a long time since we last performed here and we are very excited to be back. We’ve taken this opportunity to feature recent compositions by Edit-Point member Timothy Cooper, Matthew Whiteside and Nicholas Virgo alongside music by Ricardo Climent and Francis Dhomont. 
Dhomont’s Novars is tonight’s focal point and something of an electroacoustic masterwork. It is simultaneously fresh and innovative but lovingly re-explores, and draws influence from, Pierre Schaeffer’s and Pierre Henry’s musique concrète. Accredited with the creation of an entirely new musical form these pioneers have been of great influence to electronic musician’s and Novars is a fitting tribute to their innovation.
