VA - Gráinne Mulvey: The Tyndall Effect (2024) [Hi-Res]

Métier is proud to present The Tyndall Effect, a compelling collection of works by acclaimed composer Gráinne Mulvey. Drawing inspiration from the remarkable legacy of John Tyndall - physicist, explorer, poet, and cultural icon - Mulvey’s compositions bridge the gap between music and science, paying homage to Tyndall’s groundbreaking contributions in climate science, molecular spectroscopy, and bacteriology. John Tyndall, a native of Leighlinbridge, Co. Carlow, Ireland, was celebrated for his fascinating lectures at the Royal Institution and his pioneering scientific work, which paved the way for modern nanoscience and quantum reality. Known as the “poet of science,” Tyndall’s vivid descriptions of natural phenomena have now been transformed into an evocative musical experience by Mulvey. The Tyndall Effect features six pieces, each reflecting aspects of Tyndall’s extensive work and achievements.
