Sounding Bombe: Enigma Project
Violinist Jack Campbell Live in Concert
A journey from electro-mechanical computation to electro-acoustic composition, this 50 minute piece of music for violin and found-sound is the accumulation of five years of study and discovery. Written in collaboration with the National Museum of Computing in Bletchley, UK, this piece uses the beauty of music to celebrate scientific evolution and revolution and the human spiritâs resistance of evil and tyranny.
