Rakhi Singh is a violinist, collaborator and composer, releasing her debut EP on Icelandic label Bedroom Community in 2021, alongside leading the group she co-founded, Manchester Collective, to their Proms debut weeks later. Seb Gainsborough, also known as Vessel, is a frequent collaborator of Singh’s, who has over recent years shifted his practice from the strictly electronic across into the instrumental realm – developing expansive new works, treading the uncanny ground of the organic and synthetic for the likes of Somerset House and Aldeburgh Music. With NYX, this trio of creative forces presents a new work for vocal ensemble, electronics and violin exploring Danish poet Inger Christensen’s masterpiece It.
