Hello Halo by Ruby Colley

Composer, violinist & sound artist Ruby Colley, invites you to the premiere of her new vocal work ‘Hello Halo,’ performed with Exaudi Ensemble, a leading vocal ensemble for new music.

There are two premiere performances:

·       Kings Place, London 1st Feb

·       Liverpool Philharmonic 3rd Feb

This event is described as follows:

"This composition has been developed alongside Ruby’s brother, Paul Colley, who is neurodivergent & is non-speaking.

Despite being termed "non-verbal," Paul uses a rich repertoire of sounds & gestures. This composition transcribes these communication methods, using live voice and recordings of Paul, to make a vocal map of Paul's life & relationships. It is an intimate examination of communication, both subtle and nuanced, and asks questions of what it means to be human."
