Music and Technology XII: Vox by Trevor Wishart.
In today’s programme we focus on Vox, a six-part cycle written by British composer Trevor Wishart. Wishart was fascinated by the human voice and demonstrates a wide range of vocalisation in this cycle. Wishart also makes use of a lot of electronics such as tape recordings and computers.
