Howard Skempton - Delicate

Delicate

Delicate was a collaboration with Motionhouse Dance Theatre for a full-length dance piece with music by Howard Skempton commissioned and performed by BCMG.

Howard Skempton’s commissioned score is a miracle of diversity. Beguiled into hearing bells, gamelan, sitar and bagpipes, it is hard to believe it all comes from just two cellos and percussion.
