Together with Eivind Lønning we premiered our duet TIDE on the 9th of September in kc Nona - a charming theater in the heart of Mechelen, Belgium. Tickets were sold out and we had a great time! Thanks to all of you who came for making it so special, and thanks to everybody who has supported us on the way!
This has been an inspiring collaboration. Eivind Lonning is a fantastic musician. A trumpet has endless possibilities of sound in his hands!! We decided early on that we would not use his usual mutes and in return he discovered several other creative ways of muting... It was interesting to explore different sound textures vs movements and their possible relations in such a thorough research, but we worked two months on the creation. TIDE has a clear structure but is an improvised piece at its core. This gives a great excitement when performing it and it is different every time. Be welcome to any of our upcoming performances!!
