Gentle Fire
Gentle Fire was a British live electronics group active from 1968 to 1975, based between London and Yorkshire. Its members combined acoustic instruments, self-built instruments and electronics, and played indeterminate and verbally notated scores alongside their own Group Compositions. The group gave concerts, festival appearances and radio broadcasts across Europe. The core line-up was Richard Bernas, Hugh Davies, Graham Hearn, Stuart Jones and Michael Robinson, with Richard Orton in the early years.
