I Love This City and its Outlying Lands was written in response to the work of Fernand Legér and commissioned to be performed at a retrospective of his work at Musée des Beaux Arts de Nantes. The piece translates the compositional qualities of Legér’s paintings into devices for making sound, taking account of the interaction of form and the atmosphere evoked by works such as Paysage Polychrome (1937). It has been decribed as “sound as landscape, but one fogged or smogged to abstraction, a mental low-rise edgeland sprawl to meander thoughtfully through. A deceptively clean page that actually froths with subtle activity and deftly manipulated texture” (Ears for Eyes).

I Love This City and its Outlying Lands was subsequently recorded and released by Mappa Editions with artwork by Andrea Šafaříková.
