Decibel New Music Ensemble: Inland Lake
6 November @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm AWST

Decibel New Music ensemble returns to Perth to perform Inland Lake (le lac intérieur) – a 45-minute electroacoustic work composed in 2022 by French Composer Lionel Marchetti.
The piece is written for ensemble and partition concrète – a fixed media component that acts simultaneously as score, ensemble member and sound track.
Decibel is a six-piece ensemble integrating acoustic and electronic music – and this work creates a new ‘acoustic ambient’ genre in which instruments weave in and out of the sound track, oscillating focus between the performers and the rich sound world radiating from multiple speakers in the space. Threading string, wind and percussion with more unusual instruments such as ocarinas, singing bowls and harmonicas, the concert provides a lush and imaginative listening and viewing experience.
Sohan Ariel Hayes’ projection design is built around the film by Karl Ockelford, being shown in Perth for the first time.
