Ocean Star 16:47
Hail Queen of Heaven, the ocean star, Guide of ev’ry wanderer below, Thrown on life’s surge, we claim thy care, Save us all from woe. Pray for the wand’rer, pray for me, Trav’llers in this vale of tears, Blessed advocate, to thee we cry, Shine starlight on the seas. Pray for the mourner, pray for me, Hear our sorrows, calm our fears, Soothe with thy hope, our radiant misery Give refuge in our grief. Lyrics: traditional / sacred / DSCM

Pat-a-pan 07:48
Guillaume, prends ton tambourin, Toi, prends ta flûte, Robin; Au son de ces instruments, Turelurelu, patapatapan, Au son de ces instruments, Je dirai Noël gaîment. Mare bring your rounded drum, With your long flute robin come, When we hear them play as one, Turelurelu, patapatapan, When we hear them play as one, Then the year will be well begun. Humankind and God divine More at one than flute and drum When we hear them play as one, Turelurelu, patapatapan, When we hear them play as one, Then together let us come. Guillaume, prends ton tambourin, Toi, prends ta flûte, Robin; Au son de ces instruments, Turelurelu, patapatapan, Au son de ces instruments, Je dirai Noël gaîment. Lyrics: traditional / sacred / DSCM

Dies Irae, dies illa The day of wrath, oh on that day Will dissolve the world in ashes Death and nature, they will marvel Oh when the creature will rise again The guilty judged, oh spare them God Lacrimosa dies illa (tearful will be that day) On which from these embers I rise again My heart crushed in ashes Pie Iesu Domine Oh, merciful Jesus Grant them rest Lyrics: traditional / sacred / DSCM

about

Dark Alchemy is an event series co-curated by Dead Space Chamber Music and Tommy Creep. Since 2017, Dark Alchemy have been curating eclectic, atmospheric events in Bristol, often in unique heritage spaces. We share a particular love of early music, neoclassical, dark ambient, ritual ambient and post-industrial, but we value atmosphere and experimentation over adherence to genre conventions.

Dark Alchemy V took place in the church of St Thomas the Martyr, Bristol, on September the 2nd 2023. On the bill were:
NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS
Electronic / experimental / industrial / ambient

SATORI

A huge thank you as always to The Churches Conservation Trust in Bristol, who we are proud to support in their invaluable work to care for unique places like Puxton and St Thomas the Martyr's Church, Bristol keeping them open for all to enjoy and be nourished by for generations to come.

Dark Alchemy VI will take place in the same venue on 07/09/2024 - follow DSCM and Dark Alchemy on socials for announcements.
