THE MAGIC HOUR


The Magic Hour is a six month long project produced by Oxford Contemporary Music in partnership with the Oxford University Botanic Gardens. Artists, scientists and gardeners will work together to explore each other’s worlds and the subject of dusk, twilight or “the magic hour” (as it’s called amongst cameramen and photographers).
The project will culminate in a three night event in early September when you will be able to explore the garden at dusk and during the evening experience magical sounds and impromptu performances.
The artists working on the project are some of the country’s most exciting sound artists and composers. From April to September they will be researching the garden and its plants, building and composing and working with community groups and schools around Oxford as their work progresses.
