Isobel Waller-Bridge : VIII

VIII’ is a bold and gripping work of sonic intensity by critically-acclaimed composer-performer Isobel Waller-Bridge. Written for string ensemble, the eight tracks – conceived as compact miniatures – experiment with innovative string techniques and sounds. Highly in-demand and respected for her film, television and theatre scores (‘Black Mirror’, ‘Fleabag’, ‘Emma’, ‘Munich – The Edge Of War’), Isobel ventures into new territory with this solo project, creating an expressive and daring artist statement which explores the co-existence and revealing of multiple selves.
