An amazing privilege it was to perform an improvised vocal work with Phil Minton last October at Kings Place in London. The video of that work is now public, beautifully shot by Ed Prosser.

Soundings #7 - with SJ Fowler and Phil Minton Date: October Friday 7th 2016 Location: Kings Place, London. Filmed by Ed Prosser and Tom Lewton www.stevenjfowler.com/soundings www.hubbubgroup.org Soundings is a series of collaborative performances by SJ Fowler, curated in conjunction with Wellcome Library and Hubbub at Wellcome Collection.

For over fifty years Phil Minton has been performing, singing, vocalising around the world. He absolutely has shaped, even defined, free vocalisation and improvised sound poetry since WWII. To get to work with him for the first time, with no prior preparation, no conversation about what we'd do before the performance even, was such an honour, and beautiful / terrifying in equal measure. So important for me to feel I'm crossing over with the greats of previous generations
