bracken moor
Shared Experience
director: Polly Teale
composition & sound design: Jon Nicholls
Jon’s score and sound design for Alexi Kaye Campbell’s haunted and haunting story of grief and loss mixed keening string sounds (courtesy of musicians from regular collaborators Bristol Ensemble) with abstract unsettling organic and elemental textures permeating the play with pervasive unease.
“Bracken Moor‘s profoundly unsettling atmosphere owes much to Jon Nicholls’ sound design and score; the play is accompanied throughout by barely perceptible sounds and music, maintaining a palpable sense of dread punctuated by moments of intense shock”
