A short clip of Anna Clyne’s Overflow, performed last week at
@rwcmd
‘Overflow is a wind dectet inspired by Emily Dickinson’s poem, By The Sea, in which we experience the ocean’s power over the poet’s imagination - both alluring, unsettling and dangerous. The line from which this piece takes its title “Would overflow with Pearl” reminded me of an image from Jelaluddin Rumi’s poem Where Everything is Music whereby the tiniest motion of a pearl on the ocean floor can cause great waves above.’
The full performance can be seen over on our YouTube channel, link in bio!
Thanks to Madeleine Longbotham, Ellen Wilkinson, Alvaro Hurtado, Hugh Sergeant and Adam Muxworthy for joining us for this thrilling piece!
