about

Our work as a quartet is about finding space for ourselves and each other as performers, friends and women. We often seek out and follow a single sonic thread, which unfolds, unravels and reveals itself in a new form as we improvise and play together.

As Our Hands Move is a constellation of original compositions, field-recordings, spoken text, arranged folk tunes and interpretations of verbal and text scores that interrelate and speak to each other - sonic representations of fragility and struggle, togetherness, intergenerationality and affection. It is a gesture that aspires to capture the ephemerality of music making “with self – with other(s) – with context/environment […] Letting go of old patterns - letting go of new patterns. Repatterning” Pauline Oliveros (2010).

At its heart, this album is about friendship and a love of making and playing together. We hope you enjoy it as much as we've enjoyed making it.

released June 23, 2023

Breakfast Club is a quartet of flutes (Detta Danford and evi nakou), recorders / voice (Rhia Parker) and cello (Natasha Zielazinski) brought together through a love of making music. We have performed in venues across the UK and Greece and collaborated with Melissa Network, Women for Refugee Women, Magpie Project, Barbican/LSO Culture Mile, the Greek National Opera and Onassis Stegi, amongst others. Through sound, music and text we are constantly looking for ways of opening a crevice through which memories, stories and voices are given the space and time to resonate and connect with each other.

Breakfast Club is an expression of our shared experiences - a celebration of friendship and a sounding of togetherness through unique sonorities and repertoire.

Detta Danford: flutes, shakuhachi
evi nakou: flutes, shinobue
Rhia Parker: recorders, voice, ukulele
Natasha Zielazinski: cello, banjo
