Enter a breathtaking world of percussive sound in Adelaide’s most haunting location, as one of Australia’s foremost percussionists extends the comprehensive sounds of the glockenspiel, the beauty of the vibraphone, and the deep resonance of gongs, through electronic processing, samples and sub woofers.
In association with South Australia’s history festival, Louise Devenish performs in Glenside’s Z-Ward – Adelaide’s decommissioned prison for the criminally insane. Featuring the work of Australian composers Andrián Pertout, Stuart James, Cat Hope and Kate Moore, Devenish’s ‘breathtakingly deft delivery and sculptor-like attention to detail’ will be complemented by visual projections mapped to the instruments on stage by New York artist Ross Karre.
Louise Devenish is the Head of Percussion at the University of Western Australia Conservatorium of Music, and regularly performs throughout Australasia, Europe, North America and the UK as a soloist and with ensembles including the Decibel New Music Ensemble and Speak Percussion. She was awarded the 2016 Australian Music Centre and APRA/AMCOS Art Music State Award for Performance of the Year.
In Adelaide for one night only.
