Angela Elizabeth Slater

This Wednesday The Stafford Orchestra, myself and Frances Sawford are premiering my double flute concertante 'As the sky rushes in'. I'm hugely looking forward to it. It's been quite the undertaking for all of us and I'm proud and excited by how it's sounding! The work is inspired by mumerations of starlings, flowing and fleeting across the sky! Do come along if you can make it! Thanks to the funders that made this commission possible- Stafford District arts Marchus Trust The Hinrichsen Foundation @composersedition @hennesseybrownmusic

To wrap up our video series, Trio Tempestoso turns to Angela Slater’s Der Same sucht das Licht. Join us as we talk about this fascinating work, inspired by a clarinet sketch Stravinsky once sent to Picasso 🎶🎨 Clarinet: @golobkl Accordion: @sanja.playsaccordion Cello: Urban Megusar Video: @otogvardjancic Audio&Video: @comploidaniel Recorded at: @palaislichtenau #triotempestoso #classicalreels #chambermusic #kammermusik #behindthemusic

🔺 FIRST IMPRESSIONS 💿 is now available on all streaming platforms!!! We couldn’t have made this happen without some truly amazing people we’ve met along the way. 🎶 Huge thanks to Tanja and Axel Fischer and the team at @palaislichtenau for your warm hospitality and for letting us record in your stunning wooden hall! Shoutout to @comploidaniel for always making us sound incredible—and for bringing your relaxed, positive vibe to Berlin! Thank you @otogvardjancic for pulling all those late nights making sure we had great videos that truly represent us! It took us a while to decide to record our debut album—we’ve been playing together for 7 years now! We hope you enjoy it as much as we loved creating it. On the album, you’ll find our arrangements of pieces by Igor Stravinsky, Joseph Haydn, and Astor Piazzolla, alongside original compositions: a new piece written for our trio by @angelasmusic , and a composition by @sebastianfagerlundmusic that brought our trio together in the first place.

I am delighted to be able to finally share with you my work Mountains become oceans concerto for harp and percussion, which received its world premiere and second performance earlier this year with soloists @rosannaharp @hweaver13 (percussion), conductor @conductorgeorge with the @amarillosymphony This was a huge undertaking of a work occupying 40 mins of the 2 hours and 20 minutes of music I wrote last year! It has a huge range of colour not in the least because of all the fun I had with the percussion, from waterphone, to marimba to ribbon crasher and a lot more in-between. Hope you enjoy listening! Programme notes: Mountains become oceans seeks to transport the listener into a different world and chronological space, drawing parallels to the current extraordinary climatic events on our own planet. When our Sun comes to the end of its current lifecycle, it will become a red giant, engulfing Mercury, Venus, and, most likely, Earth. The Sun will expand, doubling in size and power, allowing the rays to reach the farthest corners of the Solar System. This work follows Titan, one of Saturn’s moons, and a moon of frozen ice mountains. With this event, Titan will see its temperature rise and its ice will melt and form some of the last oceans of our Solar System. The parallels of rising temperatures causing our own glaciers and ice mountains to melt are striking and powerful. For both Titan and Earth, the rising temperatures will bring about profound change that will lead to not only destruction, but offer potential for new life. @composersedition @musicpatronuk
