The Path

Halina Rice

3pm: St George's Hall
Walk a new trail with electronic music artist Halina Rice in this exciting new collaboration with the BBC Concert Orchestra.

Rice’s inspiration for this piece came from the concept of a path. Ideas she explored include the interplay between the constant – the one who is on The Path – and the inconstant, a changing and evolving landscape, whether that is physical or metaphorical.

During this progress or endeavour, how might one affect the other and how might these interweave to create something altogether new?

Halina Rice is an electronic music producer and live AV artist working at the intersection of art, music and technology, creating tracks in the genre of intelligent dance music (IDM) and uniting organic with inorganic sounds to produce multilayered compositions.

Genre: Orchestral

About this event

All events across New Music Biennial 2025 were free.

Events included two performances of the same work and a short interview with the creative team in between the two. This enabled audiences to experience the second performance with greater insight into the creative process.
