Violinist Daniel Pioro is an ardent advocate for new and experimental music and is always interested in finding fresh ways of listening to and creating sound. He develops strong artistic collaborations and actively seeks to draw the audience into a creative relationship, inviting them to “Come and sit inside the violin and be terrified with me – get excited with me”. Kings Place have invited Daniel to curate a weekend of deep listening for our audiences, exploring emotional states via the music of Bach, Oliveros, Tenney and Valgeir Sigurðsson. Inspired by Pauline Oliveros’ concept of deep listening, developed during a time of political despair, we ask audiences to actively listen to the world around us in a communal act of renewal and repair.
