Composers Notes

Beyond the Horizon and Celestial Spirals
Two Solos for Lever Harp
Lauren Scott

Programme Notes:

Written in 2019, Beyond the Horizon and Celestial Spirals share the same 3 note motif and can be played together as a two movement work or individually. Both pieces explore an ethereal ‘out of this world’ soundscape and feature on Lauren Scott’s debut album, ‘Beyond the Horizon’ - New Music for Lever Harp (AVIE2417). Written for lever harp, they can also be played on pedal harp with some adaptation by the player.
 
Beyond the Horizon features various note bending techniques developed by the composer to evoke the feelings of floating beyond the atmosphere. Celestial Spirals features a buzzing sound from having a paperclip resting at the base of just one string to create an alternative sound world which underlines the spirals that flow through the piece before coming back to it’s original starting point. Celestial Spirals was premiered by Eleanor Turner.
