Ignacio Cordoba/Søren Kjærgaard (ES/DK)

Ignacio Cordoba – electronics
Søren Kjærgaard – piano
 
Søren Kjærgaard‘s work as a pianist, composer and improviser encompasses a variety of settings ranging from his trans-Atlantic trio with drummer Andrew Cyrille and bassist Ben Street, to the duo collaboration with Torben Ulrich, the 82 year old legendary Danish tennis player and inter-disciplinary artist.
Most of S.K.’s activities in recent years have been exploring and interweaving different approaches to music and sound, converging elements of improvisation, composition, performativity and practice into one dynamic field of play. This has lead to a manifold of international exchanges, commissions and a growing discography of critically acclaimed albums.
Ignacio Cordoba is a Copenhagen-based spanish musician, who devotes himself to “La Caja” (The Box) – an old industrial calibration machine that plays with time like memory does: stretching, slowing and speeding sound, making it appear and disappear a bit different every time. Distant and hypnotic like a black hole, he uses it to get us to underwater sounds, bubbly atmospheres and melancholic mermaid calls through emotional and trance-inducing tunes. The project has been active in different line-ups (from solo or duo up to quintet) since 2011, with two self-released records, cassette tapes through the labels MAGIA (SP/DK), Dokuro (IT) and Punctum (CZ), and 6 European Tours through 17 countries and a Japanese Tour.

Zoe Efstathiou/Egil Kalman (GR/SE)

Zoe Efstathiou – prepared piano, electronics
Egil Kalman – modular synthesizer/ double bass
 
The duo Zoe Efstathiou working within the field of improvised electroacoustic present the premier of their new project Athroa. Athroa combines an improvised performance with an interactive light installation. Fifty lights scattered in the room articulate the interaction between sound and space and – used as a musical instrument – engage in a dialogue with the duos timbral improvisations. The work is fully supported by Konstnärsnämndens (Swedish Arts Grants Committee) project grant for 2018.
