  • Summary

  • Karen Power is a composer from Cork, Ireland whose work spans orchestral music, sound installation, music for dance and experimental film, and free improvisation. Since 2012, much of her work has been concerned with the use of field recordings and ambient sounds. Power has a new album with Quiet Music Ensemble out now on Other Minds Records, …we return to ground…, which surveys her field recording compositions written between 2015 and 2022. In the interview, we talk about field recordings, dialogue between natural sounds and human performers, and Power’s “aural scores.”
