Electronica III with the BBC Concert Orchestra
Date: Thursday, 9th June 2011, 7.30pm
Venue: Queen Elizabeth Hall (South Bank Centre), London
As well as Jarvis performing This Is Hardcore, the programme will also include:
Hearing is believing – Jarvis is your host, and plays Pulp’s This Is Hard Core [sic] with the BBC Concert Orchestra…
Hearing is an illusion – Andrew Poppy’s Revolution No. 8: Airport for Joseph Beuys wires the orchestra inside a box of electric delights designed to scatter sound to the outer limits. Patrick Nunn connects an electric cello into shape shifting electronics that manipulate instrumental sounds into shimmering reflections in his Fata Morgana and gives Aphex Twin's Nannou an acoustic-twist. From South America, Eduardo Miranda and Javier Álvarez demonstrate the alchemy of transmuting acoustic tones into electric gold…
Hearing is not believing what you see – Graham Fitkin’s Kaplan reminds us of the menacing antihero of Alfred Hitchcock’s thriller North By Northwest, a man who definitely doesn’t want you to know who he is. Also hiding in the acoustic undergrowth, Edward Williams’ Suite from Life on Earth, music conceived for David Attenborough’s Life on Earth…
And Seeing is Believing: the title of young New York superstar composer Nico Muhly’s concerto for electric six-string violin and orchestra – electronica evoking celestial clouds and telescopic, foraging insects.

From the makers of Made in Sheffield and The Beat Is the Law (Part One) a new documentary DVD will be released on 24th May. It will follow Pulp's long journey from 80s obscurity to fame in the mid-90s.
Taking as its focus the story of seminal pop misfits/messiahs Pulp over the course of their journey from the darkest industrial depths of Sheffield to the pinnacle of pop, this is an entirely new premium double disc release from the team behind The Beat is the Law.
Fanfare… tells the band’s story in their own words through specially filmed interviews with members of their classic (and reunion) line up including Jarvis Cocker and Russell Senior – as well as contributions from the likes of Richard Hawley, Moloko’s Mark Brydon and WARP’s Rob Gordon.
This is a four-hour, double disc DVD presentation featuring sleeve design and 24 page colour booklet by The Designers Republic
The DVD also features previously unseen footage of Pulp filmed in Chesterfield in 1985.
