Quiet Music Ensemble is proud to announce that it will perform Pauline Oliveros’ The Mystery Beyond Matter and Jennifer Walshe’s Dordán in the new UK festival, Deep Minimalism, run by South Bank Centre. In the central slot of the 3-day event, 8 pm on June 25th, the performance will take place in one of London’s most prestigious venues, St. John’s Smiths Square. In the company of Oliveros and Walshe themselves, QME will join musicians and composers from all over the world in a celebration of “music that takes its time”.

QME is one of Ireland’s most radical and exploratory musical groups, with a unique and profound musical language and an ability to bring that sound to audiences in accessible ways. It has given many high-profile performances in Ireland and abroad, including several live-to-air on national radio. It released its first CD in 2015, which consisted of four tracks created for the group by world-renowned composers Pauline Oliveros, Alvin Lucier and David Toop and QME’s director, John Godfrey.

Quiet Music Ensemble is especially delighted to be able bring the fabulous Dordán by Irish composer Jennifer Walshe to London; our appearance at Deep Minimalism is an exciting opportunity to showcase the amazing creative richness of Ireland in a truly international event.
