First Aberdeen performance
Haworth Hodgkinson
Prime Rant (2018/2020)
Premiere of new version
Intuitive Music Aberdeen is pleased to return for another lunchtime recital at St Andrew's Cathedral, presenting two pieces by Haworth Hodgkinson.
Bennachie Sketch received its world premiere performance at Leith Hall last year. This is its first Aberdeen performance. The piece invites us to imagine spending 24 hours in the Forest of Bennachie, from 6am to 6am, although in performance 24 hours are compressed into about 24 minutes. The music calls for piano and two (electronic) organs, and all three players get to play each instrument.
The programme ends with Prime Rant, a short piece that gives us a chance to play in some odd rhythms. The piece is mostly in a 13-beat rhythm, but in the new version that we are playing for the first time in this concert there are sections in 11, 17, 19 and 23 beats to the bar.
