By the sea: an audio-visual portrait
13th February 2023
Films Birmingham Record CompanyReleased in January 2023 as an EP by our partner label Birmingham Record Company, By the sea is the name of the most recent project from the experimental Italian composer Michele Deiana. With music performed by the Perpetuo Saxophone Quartet, this audio-visual portrait of the Venetian sea is structured in three main sections in which the observer’s gaze explores different elements. Immerse yourself in the full film below.
The composer, Michele Deiana, describes the project: “Living all my life between islands, I developed a particular affinity with the sea over the years. Constantly in connection with the water, I started experiencing my life as an endless flux of experience and I lived as a sailor would live their own hermitic joys and dramas. By the sea has the ambition of portraying the great sea, but retrospectively. Behind this objective lies the intention of creating a self-portrait.”
By the sea is out now on Birmingham Record Company and is available to stream on all major platforms and to download from the NMC shop.
