Acclaimed composer Brian Elias has created a new series of four works for solo French horn, each responding to an artwork in Anish Kapoor and to the spirit of the exhibition as a whole. Celebrated horn player Ben Goldscheider performs these newly commissioned pieces live, as he moves between the sculptures in a spontaneous sequence.

Direct engagement with the artworks – through visits to Kapoor’s studio and conversations with the artist – informed the composer’s deep awareness of ‘how alive, how quick the sculptures are, and of the many different kinds of movement present within them’. The music translates Elias’ personal impressions of Kapoor’s artworks, rendering them in musical shape and form.
