Scored for voices and free melodic instruments, each piece tunes into a different dimension of the vibrant and oracular polyphony of the chorus, its joyful hallucinations, its many languages and the many ways it has with the world as a body of bodies, singular and plural.

Very please to announce the pre-order is now up on Bandcamp for our next release this time in conjunction with Cours de Poetique. Affordances presents four works written by Belgian composer Heleen Van Haegenborgh for UK experimental choral ensemble Musarc between 2019–25.

Also in advance of their new release Affordances on the label, creative director Joseph Kohlmaier of experimental choir Musarc selects work from their past and current projects. kioskradio.com/label/sn-varia…
