Ronojit Bhuyan/Polina Savicka- On Record

Pianist and Master's student Ronojit Bhuyan performs Trinity Laban composer Polina Savicka's 'Is the rain a gift?'.
The work weaves together the tender, uncertain and ever-shifting nature of rain, exploring it both as a feeling and a phenomenon. Taking some of its influence from European folk music, it is filled with traces of song that evoke the memories and sensations of a space that is both familiar and ambiguous. The intention behind this piece was to create something that sounded almost like an improvisation, something personal and intimate. 'Is the rain a gift?' won the 2023 John Halford Competition composition prize where it was first performed by Ronojit Bhuyan.
On Record is Trinity Laban's TH-cam series featuring original works from across our Faculty of Music. Each session is filmed and recorded in one continuous take in our studio in King Charles Court, Greenwich, where you'll find the bustling home of our music students.
