Ella Jarman Pinto/Matthew Lee Knowles
"I always thought I'd like his sculpture in my garden"
-first performed by ARCO at the sonic arts network, Brighton 5th July 2008
Matthew Lee Knowles graduated from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, leaving in 2008 with a first and the Frank Prindl Composition Prize. He has written six theatre scores, seven happenings, about fifty pieces of art, eighty poems (including many mesostics), 600 questions, around 450 musical compositions (from solo to orchestral), almost 2000 word-events and has been involved in thousands of performances.
Text is extremely important in his work and features in every piece on some level. Recent conceptual poetry pieces include SEVEN - the first seven syllables of every sentence extracted from a London newspaper, VERLAINE where all words ending -ing were taken from 170 translated poems by Verlaine and VOICES - 168 poems using only one, two, three and four letter words.
As a pianist Matthew has performed Stockhausen’s Goldstaub for the BBC/SAN (which required him to live without food, thought or sleep for four days and improvise at the piano for five minutes), Kondo's Metaphonesis and his own composition in a video performance by Brandon Labelle (Cloudy) in Wilton's Music Hall, London.
His poetry and art has been published and exhibited in the UK, America and Japan and this year his music was used on a Channel 4 documentary, a new piece was premiered by Nora Volkova Ensemble in Berlin, Warehouse Ensemble performed a new two-minute opera and ARCO premiered a piece live on Resonance FM.
"Around This House - Happening in the Library" featured contributions from over 70 people and was Matthew's latest large scale project, taking place in Shoreditch Library in July. Recent highlights include performing solo for the BMIC music mart (Solo for Person), improvising at the piano to over 1000 people in India and performing as a musician in a dance festival in Spain. Matthew has just formed a new spokenwordmusic trio KLK with Neil Luck and Josh Kaye and was performer/composer in residence for Notations and The Voice and Nothing More, both curated by Sam Belinfante and Neil Luck.
He was in Lithuania in June and September with ARCO collective, writing and performing a new large scale composition and recently returned from Sardinia where he performed, along with Neil Luck, an eighty minute set outside, for Miniere Sonore where they were the headline act. Matthew is a keen collaborator and already has a large number of partnerships planned for 2009/2010. On the last Sunday of every month Matthew opens his house to artists, musicians, dancers, actors and composers for S.N.I.F.F. (Sunday Night is Frolics Fun.)
Future projects include several more happenings and commissions, a play, an opera, gallery events, a follow up to six_events (performed in twenty-nine countries in January 2008) called sixty_six_events - a collaboration with Andy Ingamells and a performance of "820 Actions for a Person" is in development, with Adam de la Cour.
