'an eternity in one second' by Jules de Bouverie
'an eternity in one second' was premiered by Huw Morgan on 10th February 2024 at All Saints Church in Bristol as part of Huw's Mainly Slow Organ Music series. The piece is improvisatory and written for any bell-like instrument and of indefinite length. Find the score here: https://diazsounds.wixsite.com/my-sit...
This concert series is free and open to the public. It is very low key and I highly recommend you catch a performance if you're in Bristol! Find the next events and more info about Huw here: https://organslow.mystrikingly.com/
The complete program included: Tom Johnson: Organ and Silence (extracts); Jaime Diaz: An eternity in one second (first performance); Howard Skempton: Affirmation; Richard Glover: Organ Harmonies.
From the church's website about the organ, 'Designed in association with the then parish organist, Edward Fry, the organ was built by the well known firm of J W Walker. It is a three manual and pedal organ, classical in its conception, with mechanical action, low wind pressures and open foot voicing. It is a very versatile instrument and is equally at home with a wide variety and period of organ music as well as with the regular congregational and choral music of the services. There is also a small chamber organ of three stops placed in the Gallery Chapel.' (https://www.allsaintsclifton.org/Grou...)
