Renowned composer Helen Grime makes her LSO Live debut with Woven Space.

Originally beginning life as Fanfares, a single movement that opened This Is Rattle, the RPS Award-winning festival that marked Sir Simon’s start as Music Director of the London Symphony Orchestra, the work is inspired by the willow sculptures of artist Laura Ellen Bacon, which the composer discovered entwined among trees in the gardens of Chatsworth House.

About Helen Grime

Born in 1981, Helen Grime studied at the Royal College of Music with Julian Anderson and Edwin Roxburgh (composition) and John Anderson (oboe). She came to public attention in 2003, when her Oboe Concerto won a British Composer Award. In 2008 she was awarded a Leonard Bernstein Fellowship to attend the Tanglewood Music Center where she studied with John Harbison, Michael Gandolfi, Shulamit Ran and Augusta Read Thomas. Grime was Associate Composer to the Hallé Orchestra between 2011 and 2015, a fruitful period which resulted in a series of new works and a recording of her orchestral works released by NMC Recordings. In 2016 her Two Eardley Pictures were premiered at the BBC Proms and in Glasgow, and she was announced as Composer in Residence at Wigmore Hall for the 16/17 and 17/18 seasons. Recent works include a Piano Concerto for Huw Watkins and Birmingham Contemporary Music Group and a song cycle, Bright Travellers, for Ruby Hughes and Joseph Middleton. Forthcoming performances include the country premieres of A Cold Sping by members of Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and Virga by the Deutsches Sinfonie-Orchester Berlin conducted by Robin Ticciati. She is currently working on a concerto for percussionist Colin Currie.
