Composer, conductor, collaborator and remarkable artistic creative, Peter Wiegold will be giving an online talk for School of Sound on 14 October 2025. Titled Being in the room. How to make it happen, Peter Wiegold will reflect on what for him is the essence of a successful creative collaboration. What kind of presence, intelligence, awareness, playfulness leads to that vital creative spark? The sudden moment when the new, the spontaneous – the funny – happens. When it really comes together.
He will also show excerpts from his process and work, especially from his current project The Third Orchestra, a global orchestra with musicians from right across world traditions, classical, jazz, folk electronic and so on.
Peter Wiegold is known for his Club Inégales in London, with its cross-genre, cross-culture ensemble, Notes Inégales. It was out of these that came The Third Orchestra which was launched at the Barbican in 2019. He likens the orchestra to all the club nights in one. Not so much fusion, rather they reflect the experience, sensibilities and lineage of each person, allowing them to stay being that musician – in an alchemy with the others.
The School of Sound is a space to learn about the creative use of sound in the arts and media, through online events, short courses, research, reflection and our collection of writings, interviews and recorded talks.
