DUO II - movement and sound
With the concert project DUO II, AUT - Aarhus Unge Tonekunstnere presents the audience with newly written music for violin and percussion.
Musicians and composers are invited into a unique process where everything can happen and where the boundaries are defined by the contributors. The duo format is placed under the magnifying glass, and it is examined which elements must collide to establish something new and which elements in their composition create something familiar. What does it mean to be two together and what significance does this have in our society today?
This is a study of what two musicians and two composers can create together, while examining the creative process in the hope of reaching a new understanding of the concept.
DUO II is violinist Anna Jalving, percussionist Simon Florin and composers Elsa Biston and Niklas Ottander. Together they have examined the story of what a duo is in the relationship between performer and audience and in the relationship between the two performers.
