Distinguished composer Howard Skempton introduces and performs his 'austerely beautiful, sparse, decidedly enigmatic music.' (The Guardian). 

The melodies and chord patterns he uses may be commonplace, familiar, or even ­banal, but once we step into his world, we don't hear them like that any more. By stripping everything away except what is ­essential, Skempton's music clears a space for us to hear sound as sound, letting the ­gentle play of pattern seep deeply into our ­consciousness. At this point, simplicity becomes marvellous, complex, astonishingly beautiful. We see familiar objects in a new light, as we'd never seen them before, transformed.  (The Guardian)
