Leigh Landy's musical output spans more than five decades and draws from a long tradition of experimental, electroacoustic and sound-based practice. His catalogue includes works for fixed media, instrumental ensembles, voice, dance, theatre and video, many of them developed in close partnership with collaborators.
Three long-term collaborations of note
Michel Jaffrennou, new media artist with whom Landy created a series of video and video-theatre works during the 1980s, including Le plein d'plumes, Vidéo Circus and Electronique Vidéo Circus (a Centre Pompidou commission).
Jos Zwaanenburg, flautist and composer-performer with whom Landy formed the duo La Zététique (1988–1993). Their international touring partnership produced several pieces, among them Ceci n'est pas une flûte and Only the Ephemeral is of Lasting Values, and a CD on the Erasmus label.
Heiner Müller and Fritz Marquardt, a sustained collaboration with the dramatic author and theatre director that ran throughout the 1980s, yielding several major theatre works as well as text-based concert pieces such as B, No Water Music and the song-cycle Müller-Lieder.
