Clara Iannotta (b. 1983)

[brewski]

Born in Italy, Clara Iannotta is now based in Berlin. Today I heard where the dark earth bends (2022) for RAGE Thormbones (trombonists Weston Olencki and Mattie Barbier), orchestra, and electronics. Among the many imaginative effects: string players bowing sticks of styrofoam and cardboard boxes, and wrapping metal wire around spools—all amplified by microphones nearby—to fascinating effect.

It's the final piece on this excellent program with conductor Janne Nisonen and the Helsinki Philharmonic, which should be up for a few days.

Oh sorry, I guess they took it down. 

Maybe they will restore at some point, since they do have a few videos on their YouTube channel.

Hi, they took it off YouTube, but the video is still available on the Helsinki Philharmonic's website, here:

Hope they keep it up for awhile. Enjoy!
