What they’ve said about:
‘the dynamic and dramatic cello part surrounded by a wealth of fantastical granular and spectral resonances’ Jury for the Royal Musical Associations 2023 Tippett Medal for composition
Micrographia: Observations of Fiery Sparks
‘Multi-channel madness’ Martin Parker
‘The timbre trumpeter Tom Poulson, tubist Danielle Price, and live electronics whiz Timothy Cooper create together is otherworldly… the sound of the two brass instruments and electronics is dazzling, but the trio also breaks into smaller units depending on the piece, so we get swirling chorales, virtuosic trumpet fed through kaleidoscopic electronics, amorphous electro-blobs, woven voice and tuba, and more, all marked by invention and a seriously connected rapport between the players.’ Peter Margasak
‘Never have trumpet, tuba and electronics sounded so imaginative and so magical… This is a terrific disc, full of sounds and textures. I listened to it cold at first, and frankly had no idea what I was listening to, such was the magic the three performers create.’ Robert Hugill
‘Timothy Cooper combines a sensitivity to elegance with an ear for the exotic.’ Gareth Vile
‘…the simple joys of curiosity and play were self-evident in Timothy Cooper’s Mechanical… This was quite the crowd-pleaser, bringing out a seemingly endless enthusiasm for the fun, quirky and delightful.’ Gregor Forbes
Electronics performance for Lisa Illean’s An Acre Ringing, Still with BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra:
‘That the electronic dimension was so subtly embedded within the textures as to be barely perceptible is a positive observation.’ Ken Walton
