Programme Note
About Enigmatic Music
Violinist and composer Jack Campbell presents an evening of music celebrating historical reflections on the encrypted and cryptographic technology. Highlighting Campbell's electro-acoustic solo violin opus "Sounding Bombe; Enigmatic Music" written in collaboration with the National Museum of Computing UK, this concert celebrates the brilliance of the codebreakers of Bletchley Park through cultural action.

“Sounding Bombe’s opening pizzicatos gave way to more extended, flowing lines, with pitch fragments forming larger chunks of data along the information sequence. Campbell’s violin moved effortlessly between resonant low notes, soaring lines and whispering flautando effects. Jagged double-stops, appearing to mimic gunfire sounds, eventually gave way to a chaconne-like section where Campbell’s precise ricochet patterns yielded a kaleidoscopic range of shifting harmonic colours.” Pwyll ap Siôn; The Strad
This concert also features the UK premiere of Campbell's solo violin sonata based on evolutionary encrpytion in ornithology and mathematical music by J.S. Bach.
