*200 copies limited edition* Lee Noyes (born in 1977) is a Canadian musician who lives in Sweden. Lance Austin Olsen (born in 1943) is a Canadian artist and composer. The two musicians have been collaborating for over ten years, often performing graphic scores composed by Olsen. In late autumn 2023, Noyes received two graphic scores from Olsen. After carefully considering how best to approach them, Noyes recorded both works at once, on a night in January 2024, using InputLoop sampler and percussion. Both Noyes and Olsen were very pleased with the resulting performances, from which two albums have been produced.
"A Night on the Veldt" was composed by Olsen from 2019 to 2020. Comprising one written text (including performance guidelines) and 14 drawings, the score was performed by Noyes over a period of 48 minutes and 35 seconds. The performance is documented on this CD, which includes liner notes by Noyes (in English).
