#4838 New Film Music Inspired By Early Music
Hear music from the film Flux Gourmet from Jeremy Barnes and Heather Trost (A Hawk and a Hacksaw); Purcell-inspired music by English composer Michael Nyman; and music from the film Only Lovers Left Alive by lute player Jozef van Wissem with SQÜRL (Jim Jarmusch & Carter Logan).
Hear music involving harpsichord and lute by Jeremy Barnes and Heather Trost of A Hawk and a Hacksaw which serves as part of the soundtrack to the culinary capers in Peter Strickland’s film Flux Gourmet. (There are also works by The Sonic Catering Band using the same equipment (which they loaned to the production) and recipes as in the film), [Bandcamp liner notes].
Then, listen to some of English minimalist composer Michael Nyman’s music for the films of Peter Greenaway, inspired by music of Henry Purcell’s King Arthur. Also, listen to some of Nyman’s score for Drowning By Numbers built around a Mozart Sinfonia Concertante. There’s also Italian renaissance and baroque music in work by English composer Joceyln Pook. And, hear music from Only Lovers Left Alive, a collaboration between Jim Jarmusch’s band SQÜRL and the Dutch lute player Jozef van Wissem. - Caryn Havlik
