one note band byker hill and walker shore

Many people were filmed in St Michael's church in Byker Newcastle, individually, over the course of a day, playing single notes on various insruments to create a note bank that andy jackson the composer used to create the score that you see and hear. Most of the participants had no previous musical experience. Myself Anton Hecht bought it all together, with Richard Lawson on camera. The work was produced by Mathew Lennon for Newcastle City Council as part of the Off-Centre project. The main body of people came from the community group Aspire.

Yeah, really does remind me of the "Zaubelehrling" by Goethe.

good concept with great potential. I kept waiting for some awesome music, which never happened, though. Someone ought to take this concept and run with it, to produce some real music.

Technically very well put together. Take that xylophone outside that building and burn the damn thing!!

ugh stupid xylophone! this could have been reallly amazing

[dragonmasterblade200]

xylophone makes it sound bad... It is too strong... If the volume on it was brought down while editing on it, could have been better.
