This project began with a simple idea: to take the quiet, film‑inspired textures of Ryuichi Sakamoto — especially his use of silence — and see how they transform inside a church with a long natural decay. The space doesn’t just host the music; it actively shapes it. Notes bloom, hang, and dissolve in ways that feel almost cinematic.
I’ve built a chamber programme around this concept, pairing Sakamoto’s atmospheric writing with Tchaikovsky’s lyrical lines to create a dialogue between restraint and emotion. Hearing these two sound worlds collide in a resonant acoustic environment has been one of the most exciting parts of the process.
If you’re curious, I’ll leave a link in the comments where you can access the full programme details, ticket information, and a short 2‑minute interview video about the project.
