Ian Wilson – Necromancer (world premiere)
Necromancer is a bold new interdisciplinary performance work, created by six leading artists in music and movement. Conceived as a musical ‘exorcism’, the piece responds to a series of haunting photographs taken during the Troubles in Northern Ireland by Japanese photojournalist Akihiko Okamura, who settled south of Dublin in the late 1960s. Blending composed and improvised music with physical performance, Necromancer channels a collective ritual of memory, witness and transformation.
Ian Wilson is one of Ireland’s most distinctive contemporary composers, whose emotionally resonant and structurally daring works explore life, loss, the limits of listening, and a borderless approach to musical language.
