BIO:
Born in London to mixed Indian/British heritage, Simon McCorry’s recent work is a rich combination of field recordings, adept loop based compositions and atmospheric improvisations that explore the rich sonic possibilities of the cello. From droning stillness and devastating harmonic simplicity to abstract microtonal atmospheres, his work recalls post-classical greats such as A Silver Mt Zion at their most plaintive and Stars of The Lid at their most majestic.
As a performer, McCorry is well travelled, he has performed at many prestigious events and institutions, including at South Bank, V&A, The Place and St George's Bristol, and continues to compose new music and sound design for film, theatre and dance.
