There is a harp being played in an innovative manner that combines both the melodic and the rhythmic aspects of the instrument. The atmosphere of the piece is dreamy. It could be used in the soundtrack of a calm video game or a nature documentary.,2014-01-28T08:21:30Z,Sally Beamish Music,"Music by Sally Beamish

Performed by Anne Denholm

Produced by Laurie Irvine

Performed by the outstanding young harpist, Anne Denholm, the piece was commissioned by Glasgow University for Professor Keith Vickerman, to celebrate his groundbreaking research in the field of African Sleeping Sickness. Awuya is inspired by the changing forms of deadly trypanosomes, by Central African drums and harp, and by a lullaby from a tribe decimated by sleeping sickness in the 1940s. The original words of the lullaby, sung to a little girl called Awuya, are hauntingly reminiscent of the symptoms of the disease. In his new film, Laurie Irvine has incorporated these ideas, enhancing Anne's powerful performance.

This film was made possible with funding from Creative Scotland
