About Glasgow Cathedral Festival: The Night With… Emma Jane Lloyd
As dusk permeates Glasgow Cathedral’s lower church, venture into a space where sound is alive, unpredictable and profoundly human. Violinist Emma Jane Lloyd presents an intimate programme of contemporary music, exploring the expressive depths of her instrument through extended techniques, electronics and open-ended interpretation.
Drawn from her newly released album, mue, each work Emma brings to GCF inspires a unique approach to the violin—spanning themes of transformation, solitude and collaboration. Rylan Gleave’s Small Haven entwines delicate violin lines with haunting electronics; Émilie Girard-Charest’s Mue navigates the fragility of change; Egidija Medekšaitė’s Mishra Pilu unfolds as a meditative tapestry of Indian raga-inspired textures; Matthew Whiteside’s freely, darkly, deeply loops and layers sonic fragments; while Emma’s own caprices esquisses push the instrument to its limits. Shaped by risk, discovery and the raw beauty of imperfection, this mesmerising twilight experience invites you to listen deeply and reflect quietly, opening space for your own meaning to emerge.
This concert is presented in collaboration with The Night WIth… and supported by PRS Foundation’s Beyond Borders Scheme.
