The Headspace Project Hall Two, The Sage Gateshead
Northern Sinfonia trumpeter, Clarence Adoo, had his career cut short in 1995 when a car accident left him paralysed. This evening sees Clarence performing again, as designer Rolf Gehlhaar’s software enables Clarence to create a wide range of sounds, using subtle head movements coupled with small but delicate and precise breaths, as with a wind instrument. With trumpeter Torbj�rn Hultmark, trombonist John Kenny and sound projectionist Chris Wheeler, Clarence performs John Kenny’s composition ‘Headspace’, written specifically for this software of the same name, and ‘Voice of the Carnyx’ plus a short work by young people from the region using the software. This event is being filmed by the local BBC for a documentary on BBC1
