About
It follows the huge success and acclaim of Dillon’s 'The Book of Elements' (NMC D091) performed by Noriko Kawai.
The Arditti Quartet has worked closely with James Dillon for years and premiered many of his works.
The soadie waste, subtitled “wedding receptions, dances and housie housie” is inspired by an old dance hall in Rutherglen, near where James Dillon grew up on the outskirts of Glasgow. Dillon explains that “‘The soadie waste’ was the local name for the social club which was built on the wasteland of an old chemical factory, and it was said that residual fumes from below would seep through the floorboards during a hot dance session”.
This is exuberantly physical music, evoking rowdy celebrations rather than a chemically traumatised populace.
