Jez riley French and Neil Davidson

'Sunday afternoon, 29th March, 2009 - Neil's flat in Glasgow, in the kitchen with the window open:  here is a recording, very much a location recording, of myself & Neil Davidson playing one of my photographic scores. These pieces begin with a very wide field of interpretation available to the performers & in this case the informal & sociable nature of the session had a significant influence on the work (positive). Neil plays acoustic flat wound guitar with preparations & I play field recordings, zither & paper. Glasgow contributes wind rattling the window & other sounds coming in through it' - JrF

The sounds in this piece were recorded with a pair of hydrophones between Festival Pier and Waterloo Bridge on the south bank of the Thames. The sounds include the Thames itself and water running from various outlet pipes set into the embankment. Recorded and edited April-July 2009.
