One of the most fascinating pieces in our programme this year is Hymn of Acxiom by Vienna Teng.
At first, it sounds comforting. Warm. Almost reassuring.
But look a little closer and you realise the voice speaking to you isn't human at all.
Written from the perspective of a vast data company, the piece explores surveillance, technology, artificial intelligence and our increasingly complicated relationship with the digital world. It's beautiful, unsettling, haunting—and one of our favourite pieces to sing.
This choral arrangement creates moments that feel almost mechanical before opening into rich, soaring harmonies that are incredibly satisfying to perform.
What do you think? Creepy? Beautiful? Both? 👀
We'll be performing Hymn of Acxiom as part of our Midsummer Concert on June 21st.
📅 Sunday, June 21st
