大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra at Maida Vale

Music by Mozart and Stravinsky - his Basle Concerto in D and Pulcinella Suite - conducted by Nicholas Collon. Plus Hannah Kendall's Kanashibari - the Japanese for sleep paralysis.

The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Nicholas Collon in ballet music by Mozart from his opera Idomeneo, and two choreographed works by Stravinsky: the Suite from his one-act ballet Pulcinella, based on early 18th-century commedia dell'arte sources and music, plus the Basle Concerto in D for strings. There's also Hannah Kendall's Kanashibari - the Japanese term for sleep paralysis, "an incredibly fascinating phenomenon when one temporarily experiences an inability to move when either falling asleep or awaking." writes the composer. "This happens when the sleep cycles become out-of-sync with each other and the brain essentially awakes before the body. It is often associated with very real-like visions and hallucinations, such as an intruder in the room or clothes on the floor coming to life, to which one is unable to react due to paralysis.....Sleep paralysis most certainly is not a restful experience, usually occurring during periods of intense stress."
Presented by Georgia Mann.
Recorded in Maida Vale Studio 1 on 7 October 2020.
