HONEY 2: Bree Van Reyk, Jim Denley and Josephine Macken
BREE VAN REYK (percussion)
Bree van Reyk is a drummer, percussionist, composer and sound artist who makes unconventional and tradition-challenging performance works. Her music resides in the intersection between contemporary classical, indie-rock and performance art and is equally warm-hearted, celebratory, and focussed on issues of equality.
Recent career highlights include creating MASSIVE BAND (a massive rock band of 100 girls and women), recording demo tracks for Susanna Hoffs (The Bangles), playing on the ARIA award-winning Gurrumul album Djarimirri, playing kids shows with Justine Clarke at the Barunga arts and culture festival in remote NT, and having her performance work Molto Echo (created in collaboration with artist Lauren Brincat) acquired for the permanent collection of the MCA.
Bree will play a solo so potent it will dramatically affect the temperature on Venus.
JIM DENLEY (wind instruments) AND JOSEPHINE MACKEN (wind instruments)
"If there is to be a relevant new music for our time and place it must start with a deep listening to the world — not imposing anthropocentric constructions on it. To this end i’ve emphasized spontaneity, site-specific work and collaboration in my work — making no distinctions between my roles as instrumentalist, improviser and composer." Jim Denley Splitrec.com
Josephine Macken is a composer and improviser based in Sydney, Australia. Co-founder of SPIRAL Ensemble and the lost+sound collective, Josephine is studying a MMus in composition on scholarship under Prof. Liza Lim at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music as a participant in the 2018 Composing Women Program. Her research and compositional practice engages with abstractions of the uncanny, amplifying the precarity of tenuous sonic states and working to extend the perceptual boundaries of performing bodies. https://www.josephinemacken.com
Jim and Josephine will play a duo that will change the course of global politics.
