Lauren Redhead- Adolpus Cleckheckmondtwaite is killed, by friendly fire, in the trenches (5 minute extract)

from No Room? 2015 by Sound Collective

about

Adolphus Cleckheckmondthwaite is a Yorkshire violinist who lived in the late nineteenth century. He coined a unique and idiosyncratic performance style involving extreme portamento. I investigated this performance style with 'cellist George Kennaway, resulting in a number of recordings from which I made this sound art piece, which also borrows samples from other recordings that I have made. AC was killed by friendly fire in the trenches of World War I whilst playing Raff's Cavatina, strains of which can be heard in this piece.
