Soundtrack for Meshes of the Afternoon (commissioned by Birds Eye View 'Sounds and Silents' Festival at South Bank Centre)
From Seaming ToAbout the film:
My soundtrack was commissioned by Birds Eye View, for Sounds and Silents, and was performed live at Queen Elizabeth Hall, South Bank, in 2011, and later performed again live at Latitude Festival 2011, and at Opera North Howard Assembly Rooms in Leeds.
I produced, and recorded in my studio (vocals, analogue synths, clarinets) The original print had no score. However, a musical score influenced by classical Japanese music was added after Deren's death, in 1959 by Deren's third husband, Teiji Ito.
