Northern Symphony First Movement

This is the first performance of the score of Northern Symphony by Paul Walde held at Malaspina Printmakers on May 20th, 2010. The exhibition Northern Symphony will be at Malaspina Printmakers until June 23rd, 2010. The exhibition was also included as an offsite component of Signal and Noise 10 presented by VIVO Media Arts Centre in Vancouver.

Northern Symphony is a multi-component visual art installation that translates the gnawed markings on a tree felled by beavers into cultural forms. These forms include: relief printed wallpaper, a cast architectural frieze, hand-finished gnawed beaver sticks, two dimensional artworks and a digital music score remixed and reconstructed by DJs and experimental musicians. A vintage 1920s outhouse refurbished into a miniature art gallery with a mini-retrospective completes the installation by blurring the lines between inside and outside, the cultural and the natural; the poetic and the literal.

The score is performed by:

Jordan Mann - bass
Llowyn Ball - violin
Christine Lin - violin
Jamie Baek - cello
