A Map of the Kingdom of Ireland

Stephen Rennicks reviews A Map of the Kingdom of Ireland on his website Abstract Analogue:

“Heresy Records follow up their On The Nature of Electricity and Acoustics (2013) with another excellent compilation of Irish Electro Acoustic artists…”

“You will enjoy this collection if you are seeking music that shimmers into existence, works its magic and then disappears just as mysteriously as it arrived.”

“The composer and sound designer Vincent Doherty then helps us drift away again with the joyous ‘DriftDin’, There are so many lovely acoustic and electronic touches going on in the mix, pure ear and emotional gymnastics…”

“Miss Velvet and The Blue Wolf are cap-a-pie prodigiously talented. The melodies are phenomenal, the rhythms are combustible and Miss Velvet’s voice contradicts the nonexistence of the phlogiston. Bad Get Some and “Dare” blew me away.”

Heresy Records to release Heresy, a new electronic opera by Roger Doyle

Heresy / Heresy Opera, Roger Doyle /

Heresy - an opera by Roger Doyle

RTÉ Lyric fm – Ireland’s national broadcaster to air live performance of the opera on 3rd September

In December 2017, Heresy Records will release a new opera coincidently entitled, Heresy, by composer Roger Doyle. Heresy is based on the life and works of the martyred renaissance genius, cult hero, spy, playwright and visionary philosopher, Giordano Bruno, who was burned at the stake for heresy in the year 1600 in the Campo dei Fiori in Rome.

Performed to international critical acclaim in November 2016 at Dublin’s Project Art Centre, Heresy features 5 singers and an electronic score that oscillates between a multiplicity of styles all merging into a profound and compelling musical dramatic experience.

A live performance of the opera will be broadcast on RTÉ Lyric fm at 8:00 pm GMT on Sunday September 3rd 2017. Online listeners can go to rte.ie/lyricfm and click on ‘Listen Live’.

The studio recording of Heresy, with additional compositions not heard in the live performance, will be released on Heresy Records in December 2017 and distributed worldwide by Naxos.
