Claudia Molitor's Polymer Hauntings

The latest sounds, including Lisa Streich's Francesca, inspired by a Renaissance fresco, and a meditation for two pianists and plastic bottles by Claudia Molitor.

Tom Service introduces some of the latest sounds in the world of new music, including Lisa Streich's FRANCESCA, inspired by a fresco depicting Saint Francesca Romana on her deathbed. Also tonight, a realization for string quartet of the throat singing of Inuit composer, artist and activist, Tanya Tagaq and a meditation by Claudia Molitor which she hopes will become un-performable in the very near future, due to its need for every-day, single-use plastic. Plus the world premiere of a new orchestral work by Ivan Fedele from La Scala, Milan and the award-winning An Axe for the Frozen Lake by Karlo Margetić.
