Tutto Questo Sentire: Excercises on Displacement 2/5

Exercises on Displacement is a series of five events to be held in London over the course of 2019, in five different venues. The programme brings together more than 20 artists and ensembles: an international line-up of new commissions, performances and discussions around the theme of displacement. The events are staged through Tutto Questo Sentire (TQS), the collective founded in 2014 by visual artist Rebecca Salvadori with experimental opera singer Olivia Salvadori and composer & cellist Sandro Mussida.

Exercises on displacement 2/5 is the second event of the series, an evening of performances taking place at The Iron Works, London, SE14 5BW.

The event presents original and non-original pieces by the collective, involving many of the artists that have taken part to the previous editions, as well as those with whom the collective has organically developed a form of a creative community. A mutual exchange is at the core of the project; cultural and artistic displacement is what the collective investigates.

Sandro Mussida is a London based composer & cellist whose work has been released through Sony Classical, Boomkat, Tapeworms and others. He works closely with Mark Fell, London Contemporary Orchestra and many other artists and institutions. His work investigates the relationships between tradition and innovation in music, active listening, the identity of musical languages and rites. His latest works involve historical, non-equal-tempered tuning systems questioning its perception by the western, standardized ear.

Olivia Salvadori is a classically-trained soprano, an operatic solo performer, and an experimental recording artist. She performed at Garage Gallery, Rotterdam; Hong Kong City Hall; Serralves Museum, Porto; Triennale Museum, Milan; Botanical Garden Rome to name a few. She shared collaborations with artists poets musicians such as Mark Fell, Kid Millions, Nanni Balestrini, Grace Schwindt.

Rebecca Salvadori is a London-based video artist with a long experience of filming environments following a non-hierarchical/chronological layering and sequencing of audio to footage. Her film work, including ambiguous short documentaries, artists’ portraits, music videos and AV sets, is both highly personal and wilfully elusive. Throughout the years, Salvadori has accumulated an extensive video archive from which she creates assemblages. This acts as the basis for filmic portraits of moments, people and environments.

George Finlay Ramsay is an artist from Scotland. He makes performance, installation, film, music, collage, poetry & so on. He likes to invent religions to play inside & decide if he believes in them later or never. Recently he has been working with volcanoes, bringing books full of people’s regrets to burn in their mouths. He did this with Etna in 2017 & on the remote volcanic peninsula of Kamchatka in 2018.

Lucy Railton has appeared on countless recordings and collaborations with many important figures in contemporary music over the last few years. Railton’s solo debut -Paradise 94 continues her investigations into the acoustic and synthesised capacities of her instrument, merging cello with archival recordings that journey through layers of musique concrète, sampled organ, euphoric synths, industrial noise, and speech.

Brother May is more than just a multi-disciplinary artist. Though May’s always been a singular artist in his own right, much of his early work was created in partnership with experimental polymath Mica Levi, a respected composer, producer and musician with whom May has worked closely throughout his career. Their collaborative EP May and Meeks, released in 2016, saw the pair fuse their talents to produce five tracks that defied categorisation while acting as the inaugural release for CURL Recordings, a London-based imprint that’s now developed into a tight-knit collective made up of Mica, May and Coby Sey… Since stepping into the studio in 2010 to record the Chopped and Screwed Mixtape alongside Micachu & The Shapes and The London Sinfonietta, Brother May has worked with a varied cast of sonic pioneers, including Joe Goddard of Hot Chip, Matthew Herbert, Ben Vince, Kwes and Tirzah, while supporting visionary artists such as Arca and Mount Kimbie at sold-out London dates.

Ciro Longobardi is a classical pianist. prize winner; best pianist at the International Gaudeamus Interpreters Competition in Rotterdam and at the 37th Ferienkurse Für Neue Musik in Darmstadt, Longobardi works with some prominent figures on the international contemporary classical music scene.
