Abstract

This performance forms part of a project exploring the influence of Samuel becektt on contemporary music (composition and performance). The performance was part of the event 'Dark at its Full' held at Castle Coole as part of the 'Happy Days' INternational Beckett Festival, Enniskillen. The performances were of 2 Beckett-influenced works:
Edward Jessen's chambre 119 (2009, for piano, toy piano, voice and CD); Martin Iddon's head down among the stems and bells (2010, for amplified, prepared piano).
