Blair Coron‘s ‘Elegy‘, the debut single from the upcoming EP A Carrying Stream, offers a memorable immersive experience that floats between traditional boundaries.
As part of a commissioned project for the School of Scottish Studies Archives, Coron drew inspiration from the archives to shed new light on Scotland’s oral heritage.
Using his space with effortless confidence, the instrumental composition captivates listeners through its nuances, melodies and evocative soundscape.
With a precise infusion of static amid the subdued sweep of his musical compositions, Coron has fashioned a song that artfully strikes a delicate equilibrium between approachability and profundity and harmony.
As we await the full release of A Carrying Stream, ‘Elegy’ stands as a testament to Coron’s talent and vision, leaving us eager to delve further into this absorbing exploration of Scotland’s vibrant past.
The exhibition is open now until September 30th at 30 George Square, Edinburgh
