WYSING POLYPHONIC
SATURDAY 2 JULY, 12.30-11PM
Wysing Polyphonic is the seventh annual music event at Wysing Arts Centre and the first to be fully acoustic; with no microphones, speakers, backing tracks, laptops or electronics. Building on the legacy of the previous festivals at Wysing, the 2016 festival continues to address the boundaries of sonic experimentation, though vocal improvisation, song, spoken word, drone and noise, and is perhaps the first festival to take an acoustic or ‘unplugged’ approach in this experimental way.
A range of musicians and visual artists have responded to the parameters of the festival which will rely on their experimental approach to working with voice, instruments and objects. Performances include abstract sound experiments, choral ensembles, improvised jazz, whistling, song, spoken word, and performances using ancient instruments. Much of what will take place will be improvised and completely unique to the festival and the specific surroundings and context of Wysing.
