IRCAM Computer Music Design for Speakings
Jonathan Harvey Body Mandala, Speakings, ...towards a Pure Land

Harvey describes Body Mandala, Speakings and ...towards a Pure Land as explorations of 'the Buddhist purification of body, mind and speech'. Harvey's music is heard alongside the groundbeaking technology of the Paris based music research institute IRCAM, who present music based on the realisation of speech in an orchestral context.

'Speakings explores the evolution of speech through timbre and texture. As ever with Harvey, the results are both calming and vital.' The Guardian
