about

Recorded in the cellar at Perruel, Summer 2009.

In the Summer of 2009 I visited Patrick McGinley in Perruel, France. I worked on two pieces of music while I was there. The first was an attempt to harness a technique Steve Peters uses for his Chamber Music series (stevepeters.bandcamp.com/album/chamber-music) – recording an empty space and then processing the recording to isolate and emphasise particular narrow bands of frequencies. A bit like sifting flour through a sieve with only a few unblocked holes. For this purpose I made a recording in the cellar of Patrick’s house. This became ‘Chamber Perruel 1’.

For the second piece of music, which was already partly finished, I wanted to add some bell sounds. Patrick had a variety of metal bowls and I discovered three that seemed to fit well with the tuning of the piece. I returned to the cellar and recorded these bells while listening to the partly finished piece on headphones. Then I had the idea of combining the two cellar recordings. With help from Patrick and Hitoshi Kojo I shifted the narrow bands of frequencies in the first piece so that they sounded more consonant with the bell recording intended for the second piece. ‘Chamber Perruel 2’ is the combination of the two cellar recordings.
