Event information

Just Music and Chimera Productions present the launch of Will Dutta's debut album, Parergon.

Through his multiple roles as Concert Pianist, Collaborator and Creative Producer of Chimera Productions, Will Dutta's ongoing interest in connecting the dots between modern dance music and contemporary and experimental art music has led to performances at Village Underground, Tate Modern and Ether 10 at the Southbank Centre and collaborations with the likes of Warp-veterans Plaid, sonic artists John Matthias and Neil Grant and composer Max de Wardener.

Parergon features exceptional recordings of these colourful and exciting collaborations alongside his own stunning performances of minimalist compositions all beautifully recorded on a Steinway Model D in the deepest Sussex countryside, to create a journey through an emerging non-classical aesthetic.

"One of the most deeply rejuvenating musical experiences we've come across." Vice Magazine

“Distance is a mesmerising collaboration with long-standing electronic luminaries Plaid, is a great example of Dutta's ability to marry compositional depth and sonic ambition with Electronica's established tones and timbres.” Mercury Prize Recommends…

5 Stars (E-Music) === 4 Stars (Music OMH) === 4 Stars (The Skinny)

The launch will be the only opportunity this summer to experience the new live setup featuring Catherine Ring on percussion and Richard Lannoy on turntables. Support comes in the form of Plaid and Max de Wardener
