Art Event Overview:

Hildur Guðnadóttir likes to experiment with the nature and movement of sound. Known for her collaborations with múm and Pan Sonic, she will perform with her new halldorophone. Based on the acoustics of a violoncello, the sound of this instrument is generated by an electroacoustic feedback system. The melancholic beauty of Guðnadóttir’s playing will unfold in the superb acoustics of the Konzerthaus.

Keiichiro Shibuya’s electronic compositions are acclaimed for their highly intense and dense sound. In 2009, he released for maria, his first pure piano album. For his concert Shibuya will compose and rearrange his works for piano and electronics. Specially created software will be deployed to record the grand piano live in order to manipulate and render its sound.

After two solo performances the two artists will close the evening playing in concert.
