CHIHIRO ONO X IAIN CHAMBERS | DUO MOMENT

An evening of improvisation from two duos colliding traditional instruments and electronics. Violinist Chihiro Ono and electronic musician Iain Chambers (Langham Research Centre) combine to create a new hybrid instrument. Inspired by Renga, the Japanese collaborative poetry form, this wholly improvised collaboration reimagines and refracts classical repertoire, drawing out new connections with electronic music and contemporary composition. East / West crossover is also at the heart of Duo Moment, comprising sound artist Hardi Kurda and experimental cellist Khabat Abas. The duo focus on a moment where sounds emerge through interacting, reflecting, reacting and interrupting each other.
