Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox classical composer Emily Hall (born 1978) is a composer of classical music, electronica and songs. Her music has been performed by the Duke Quartet, the London Symphony Orchestra, the Brodsky Quartet, the London Sinfonietta, and the Philharmonia; it has been broadcast on BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio 4 and France Culture. Roxanna Panufnik said of her (and 21st century female classical composers in general): "Hip young things like Tansy Davies and Emily Hall will exert a great influence on the new music scene in the next ten years."[1]
Biography
Hall read music at the University of York then studied orchestration with Yan Maresz in Paris. She studied with Julian Anderson for her master's degree in composition at the Royal College of Music. She is a founding member of c3, the Camberwell Composers Collective.[2] Hall is a member of Bedroom Community, an Icelandic record label/collective. Her music is formed from close relationships with singers and writers and she seeks her own ways of using technology and live performance.[3] Hall has received the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Award for Artists (2013), the Genesis Opera Prize (2006) and the Royal Philharmonic Society Composition Award (2005).[2][3]
The world premiere of her opera Sante took place on Wednesday 24 May 2006, co-produced by Aldeburgh Productions and the London Sinfonietta, directed by Tim Supple.[4] It utilised African melody and rhythm.[5]
Her one-act opera Found and Lost premiered in January 2016 at the Corinthia Hotel in London.[6]
Folie à Deux (2015) is a collaboration with Icelandic writer and long-time Björk collaborator Sjón. It is conceived both as a concept album and an opera and utilises a newly created instrument called the electro-magnetic harp which uses vibrating magnets.[7]
