The scale of the emergency in Gaza is unprecedented. Medical Aid for Palestinians has a team in the Strip distributing medical supplies, aid and food.

Shunyata Improvisation Group PLAY A series of concerts inspired by 7 Zen Art Principles

Concert 7 Profound Subtlety (A hidden memory lingering deep inside, limitless implications)

+ Support from Zorya (Katie Oswell and Maria Sappho)

This concert focuses upon the Zen art aesthetic of Profound Subtlety. In discussions of Zen and art the concept of Profound Subtlety (Yugen) revolves around the ability of the creator to allow the viewer to complete the art work. The artist uses empty space to allow a richer appreciation of the work to allow the mind to resonate with the work. The feeling and intention of the piece is implied rather than stated.

The viewer nurtures the longing to appreciate all of the context ,history, future and process of an object of art. The art mirrors how we see nature with a multiplicity of reactions, feelings and understandings which are provisional and incomplete rather than defined.

“When looking at autumn mountains through mist, the view may be indistinct yet have great depth. Although few autumn leaves may be visible through the mist, the view is alluring. The limitless vista created in imagination far surpasses anything one can see more clearly” (Nancy Hume, Japanese Aesthetics and Culture)

“The mysterious grace of his ( Sesshū Tōyō (雪舟 等楊, c. 1420 – August 26, 1506), most celebrated landscape painting ( Splashed Ink Landscape) derives as much from the space that is left untouched, the invisible and absent (often referred to as the “dragon’s veins” of a painting) as from what is painted and visible. The work appears incomplete, still in the act of formation, and the dramatic negative spaces created by the mists allow the various forms to dissolve and blend into one another, but more decisively, according to the yūgen dynamic, this negativity invites the viewer into the painting to actively complete it.” (Graham Parkes and Adam Loughnane, Japanese Aesthetics)

Zorya
Zorya is a duo of two women, Maria Sappho and Katie Apple Oswell. As artists, activists, researchers, and makers of sounds the duo looks to incorporate the real aspects of our existence with magic and the surreal.

Zorya bring elements of ritual, the Divine Feminine and intuition to creative works that range from sonic, sculptural, and the absurd. Taking inspiration from folklore, astrology, and marginalised histories the duo work with forming new forms of metanarrative to reflect the real global enmeshment of human, nature, ecology and time.

Passing comment and reflecting societal fractures, Zorya protends to a world with deeper connection to its nature, it’s uncanny, it’s unbelievable and it’s feminine glory.

The ever popular Tyneside Improvisors Workshop is once again scheduled to take place in the pub’s first floor space (accessible by lift).

Procedures and Concepts: what to do with them and what to do without them

Doors 2.40 | Workshop 3.00 - 5.30

On this occasion we welcome John Garner as workshop lead and invite you to bring your instrument or voice along to enjoy a couple of hours in the presence of like minded people. Participation and audience attendance is free, however cash donations are welcome which helps us offset our costs and help us to bring you the next workshop.

Following a short and busy turnaround, the evening performances commence at 6.00 with a short set (10-15 minutes) featuring attendees from the Workshop, sharing and exploring musically and in sound something of what they have been focussing upon during their afternoon together. We have titled it the "Improvisers Delight".

Next up will be a 30 minute performance by Kenyan virtuoso nyatiti player, Rapasa. For lovers of beautiful acoustic sounds, this is a must-hear event.

Following Rapasa,  we embrace the spoken word and poetry of Alex Reed, with Keren Banning & Steve Nash. The source material for their performance will be the text for Alex's latest publication, "knots, tangles, fankles", being a poetic re-imagining of the groundbreaking book written by Drs R. D. Laing and Aaron Esterson, "Sanity, Madness and the Family". 

We move for the next 30 minutes into more experimental soundscapes with the champion of the voice and dictaphone (+ other electronic devices) combination and prolific recording artist, Posset. 

Finally, to round off the entire session, we have half an hour in the company of Bulbils. We can think of no better way to see out this Auntie Joy event than to involve this locally-based yet cosmically-significant duo. It will be a treat, we guarantee!

Entry for the evenings performances is £10 or whatever you can afford

Shunyata Improvisation Group PLAY A series of concerts inspired by 7 Zen Art Principles

 Concert 6: Wizened Austerity (Solitary, dignified like an old tree)

An afternoon of groundbreaking fresh improvisation with performances from the extraordinary acoustic quartet The Shunyata Improvisation Group and the outstanding solo piano player Paul Taylor.

Explore the sounds of the Arctic through two new works from Jana Winderen and Eric Skytterholm Egan. The works were written as part of the "Exploring Arctic Soundscapes" project, where artists and researchers come together to explore how they perceive and disseminate knowledge about this fragile part of the world. Winderen's work Bleikdjupet is based on hydrophone recordings of the sperm whale's echolocation and hunting around Egga and stories about the landscape and environment beneath the surface in Bleikdjupet. Egan's piece Abifruvva for two violins and tape, deals with hidden histories and conflicts based on the industrialization of nature in the same area. In addition to the musical pieces, there will be short performances from researchers associated with the project and from the board of the museum The Whale.

Program:
Jana Winderen: Blejkdjupet (2023)
Eric Skytterholm Egan: Abifruvva (2023)
John Garner and Marie Schreer (violins)

———

Utforsk lyden av Arktis gjennom to nye verk fra Jana Winderen og Eric Skytterholm Egan. Verkene ble skrevet som del av «Exploring Arctic Soundscapes» prosjektet, der kunstnere og forskere kommer sammen for å utforske hvordan de oppfatter og formidler kunnskap om denne skjøre delen av verden. Winderens verk Bleikdjupet er basert på hydrofonopptak av spermhvalens ekkolokalisering og jakt rundt Egga og fortellinger om landskapet og miljøet under overflaten i Bleikdjupet. Egans stykke Abifruvva for to fioliner og tape, tar for seg skjulte historier og konflikter med bakgrunn i industrialiseringen av naturen i samme område. I tillegg til musikkstykkene vil det være korte innslag fra forskere tilknyttet prosjektet og fra styret i museet The Whale.

Exhibition in the Hearse House and St Mark’s Church at Ninebanks

Two unique locations at Ninebanks in the beautiful West Allen valley are hosting an exhibition of creative artworks as part of the National Heritage Open Days Scheme. The exhibition will feature new work created by internationally exhibited artists in response to the locations of Isaac Holden's Hearse House and St. Mark's Church. The work will cover painting, sculpture, poetry, music, sound, and Victorian history.

John Garner, violinist, will be creating and performing an improvised response to the exhibited works. Sarah Pemberton, poet, will perform the poems she has written as a memorial to Isaac Holden and Jim Lloyd will perform a sound piece, Night Community, based on nocturnal recordings of creatures in the churchyard.

Melinda McGarry, a local artist who is curating the exhibition, said ‘this is a stunning and historic corner of the North Pennines and artists were thrilled to be asked to participate with the community to create this unique event. Isaac Holden was a philanthropist and secretly raised money by selling photos of himself to pay for a horse-driven hearse so that people could bury their loved ones with dignity. Sadly, anecdotally we know many people today cannot afford to hold funerals and are now commemorating their losses with just a memorial service’.

J.M. Strange, Professor of Victorian History at Durham University, who is also contributing to the exhibition, said ‘Isaac Holden was in the vanguard of social media; his self-portraits were a novelty of new technology, bringing the photograph into everyday circulation. Photography was Instagram for the Victorians.’

The exhibition also provides a valuable opportunity for displaying local history material. Marina Wallace, Church Warden for St Mark’s for over forty years said, ‘this is something different for us, we are excited to be able to host this exhibition and to feature local archive material in the community hall. Teas and home-made cakes will also be available using our newly refurbished kitchen.’

The participants include;

• Professor Christopher Jones, Fine Art, Newcastle University

• Bridget Kennedy, PhD candidate, Goldsmiths; Lecturer, Newcastle University

• Melinda McGarry, PhD candidate, Newcastle University

• Martina Schmeucker, PhD candidate, Newcastle University

• Jim Lloyd, PhD candidate, Newcastle University

• Elizabeth Oughton, MA candidate, Newcastle University

• Professor J.M. Strange, Victorian History, Durham University

• Helen Shaddock, Artist

• Sarah Pemberton, Poet and Ecologist

• Clare Lynn, Poet and Educator

• Olivia Irvine, Painter and Fresco Artist

• John Garner, PhD candidate, Newcastle University

Join us at Hexham Old Gaol on Friday 15th September for a special broadcast and performance of ‘Homer’s Lane’ – a 40 min audio play by Gabriele Heller, inspired by the life and work of Joseph Hedley (Joe the Quilter).

Joe the Quilter was a typical representative of the rural cottage industry in the 1800. He attained wider recognition for his quilting skills and his tasteful design patterns. His work appeared to be very popular and some of his quilts were sent as far as America.

In 1826 Joe was brutally murdered in his own cottage. His gruesome death led to a murder inquiry and finally all his belongings were sold at an auction at Homer’s House.

Homer’s Lane explores our past and modern understanding of labour, quality and time and how this has shaped our society and the way we live today. It combines elements of true crime with themes of heritage, craftsmanship and life in rural communities.

About Water Music (performing as part of the evening performance)

Having played together for many years, bassist John Pope and violinist John Garner have been described by A Jazz Noise as ‘absolutely addictive’ and by The Jazz Mann as ‘nothing less than extra ordinary’.

Their 2022 album Water Music paid tribute to mid- to late-twentieth century artists who shook the world to its core, driving political and social change in their wake, including Jeanne Lee, Alice Coltrane, Ornette Coleman and Don Cherry.

In 2022 they appeared at Lancaster Jazz Festival and Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music, as well as venues in Bristol, Newcastle, Edinburgh, and Leeds and in August 2023 made their London debut at the internationally celebrated Cafe OTO.

Aesthetics: Shunyata Improvisation Group play a series of concerts inspired by 7 Zen Art Principles

Concert  5 Silence (Limitless Silence, the inward-looking Mind)

Support Richard Scott and David Birchall (guitar duo)

This concert focusses upon the Zen art aesthetic of Silence.

“In art everything is possible, but everything is not necessary. The silence must be longer. This music is about the silence. The sounds are there to surround the silence.” (Arvo Part)

“There is no such thing as an empty space or an empty time. There is always something to see, something to hear.” ( John Cage)

In Zen aesthetics Silence broadly suggests an active calm and a calm approach within the hurly burly of daily life. An example often quoted is walking in formal gardens; adjacent to city life, we are contemplative and refreshed but not in retreat or detached. Silence in Zen also can imply the meditative state where the mind’s attention is turned inward; a feeling generating expansiveness where limits are not perceived.

David Birchall

Born in Leicester 1981. A musician living and working in Manchester in real time with sound and instruments. This performance practice as an improviser becomes a way to think more widely about how sound functions in space and the built environment. Improvising solo and with others using guitars, objects and non-fixed instrument structures. Performing with many Manchester based/related improvisors including Sam Andreae, Andrew Cheetham, Otto Willberg, Greta Buitkute, THF Drenching, Richard Scott, Philip Marks, Adam Fairhall, Luke Poot, London based Colin Webster and Amsterdam native Rogier Smal. One-offs and random stage/studio collaborations have involved working with figures such as Marshall Allen, Rhys Chatham, Mick Beck, Phil Minton and Mark Sanders.

Richard Scott

Artist and musician previously based in Birmingham and now based in Gateshead since 2020.

The art and the music Richard makes are related to one another – in both areas he is interested in perceptual phenomena; feedback systems; interference patterns; varying modes of perception and control. He has played music since he was a child and has been making visual art since around 2013 when he started making abstract drawings as a way to approach from a different perspective the same systems and processes he is interested in as a composer.

Richard plays mostly contemporary experimental music, usually improvised and on string instruments. Richard has performed and recorded in the UK, France, Switzerland, Germany, Sweden and Slovenia, and has played with Tapiwa Svosve, Silvan Schmid, Eddie Prévost, Sarah Farmer, Andrew Woodhead, Phil Durrant, Samuel Rodgers, James Opstad, Mark Sanders, Rachel Musson, Hannah Marshall, Xhosa Cole, James Malone and Joe Wright.

The duo have immersed themselves in the singular repertoire of composers including Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, Jimmy Garrison, Jeanne Lee, Mary Lou Williams, and Misha Mengelberg, channeling these titanic spirits through the lens of their contemporary experience in myriad musical traditions. Spontaneous, transitory and ecstatic, the pair will plunge headlong into a thrilling and, at times, terrifying world of sounds and colours.

A FREE Lit & Phil Live Event. Booking required.

They have since commissioned works by over twenty composers from across the globe, performed live at celebrated venues including Sage Gateshead and St David’s Hall Cardiff and toured internationally.

Their two-part album Poetry / Synergy was independently released in November 2014 and re-released digitally on Turquoise Coconut in May 2016, followed some months later by an EP, Live at Listenpony.
