PYGMALION: Julianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore: Tragic Magic

Julianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore join forces in Tragic Magic, a deeply atmospheric performance rooted in their acclaimed collaborative album created with the Philharmonie de Paris.

  

Co-produced by Trevor Spencer, the music reflects an intuitive artistic connection forged over years of collaboration. Lattimore’s historically rich harp textures intertwine with Barwick’s layered vocals and analog synthesizers, including the Roland JUPITER and Prophet-5. Together, they create a contemplative sonic landscape that navigates grief, wonder, and renewal. Both intimate and expansive, the performance offers a moving meditation on human connection and the enduring, transformative power of artistic expression.
