| Description: | First set highlights the gamelan duo CIRAT Sound, composed of Arya (I Putu Arya
Deva Suryanegara) and Sraya (Ni Nyoman Srayamurtikanti). By combining
traditional Balinese instruments, live electronics, interactive lighting, and
movement, the artists create an immersive auditory and visual experience. The
work affirms gamelan as a living tradition, embedded in contemporary sound art
and performance practices.
Second set features four Montreal-based improvisational musicians who, together,
create a living sonic archipelago: Navid Navab, a gestural alchemist and
explorer of micro-sounds; Maya Kuroki, vocals and movement, known for her work
with the psychedelic-rock collective TEKE::TEKE; Rainer Wiens, on kalimba and
guitar; and Sam Shalabi, an Egyptian-Canadian composer who blends Arabic, jazz,
and punk influences. What unites these artists is an improvisational approach
where gesture, texture, and sound intertwine to create a constantly evolving
musical landscape.
