Piano Music 2015-2026 by Mica Levi Performed by Eliza McCarthy Composer and musician Mica Levi and their long-standing collaborator pianist Eliza McCarthy met 12 years ago. The two work closely together - a process of open exchange of scores, sketches, snippets, provocations and directions. This programme - including new music selected specially for the presentation - reflects this dynamic. Euphoria in all its guises can be found in Levi’s work and in McCarthy’s playing - from the understated and private, to spacious, timeless enveloping release; held and hidden tension to longing for liberation - together the sonic experience is at once jack-in-the box and Pandora’s box: bursts of untethered assertiveness held by unreal poise.
