New experimental and contemporary music from Tim Cape & Mayah Kadish
Timothy Cape is a composer from Donegal who often performs his own pieces, or works closely with musicians to find a connection between their idiosyncrasies and his, prioritising a direct communication with the audience. Exploring the psychological effects of post-fordist labour, his recent work uses performative processes to destroy ideological uses of language and rearrange them into new, mysterious languages which are then treated musically to summon ghosts of past events and invoke desired futures.
Violinist Mayah Kadish performs early music, new music, and many musics in between. Mayah is principal violinist of Berlin-based contemporary ensemble s t a r g a z e directed by André de Ridder and London-based contemporary group Ensemble x.y, and founding member of the baroque trio sonata group La Vaghezza. As concertmaster and sometimes soloist she has worked with the European Union Baroque Orchestra, La Tempête, Orchestra Controcorrente, Oxford Baroque, among others. She is the Musical Director of Teaç Damsa’s Nobodaddy.
