Jasmine Morris: Ca’

The world premiere of Jasmine Morrs' Ca' recorded at LSO St Luke's on 4 May 2024 as part of LSO Discovery's Soundhub Showcase 2024.

Programme Note

Ca’ is a fragmented soundscape that explores the noisiness in archival recordings. I am drawn to the distorted frequencies and the fragility of melodies that are veiled by feedback, static, hiss and hum. This piece shows fleeting glimpses of musical snapshots from an old Celtic folk song that my grandmother used to sing.
