This free concert at the University of Edinburgh presents four contemporary works for voice and flute themed around the concept of communication, performed by Stephanie Lamprea and Richard Craig. As a basic system of our culture and society, the way in which we communicate and derive meaning from our surroundings is at once immediate but also highly mediated – how do different media ‘speak’, and in what way do they reveal their strengths and weaknesses as a form of communication? The composers in this concert have challenged this idea in varying and complex ways, ranging from photography, dreams, the written/spoken word, and nature.Programme:Kate Soper (b. 1981) | Only the Words Themselves Mean What They Say (2010-2011)Brian Ferneyhough (b. 1943) | Cassandra&#x27;s Dream Song (1970)Emily Doolittle (b. 1972) | social sounds from whales at night (2007)Thomas Metcalf (b. 1996) | Message without a Code (2023) [premiere]The concert will be followed by a drinks reception.Presented by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at the University of Edinburgh.
