The Cologne-based double bassist and composer Stefan Schönegg dedicates his work to reduction - listening, lingering, creating sound as a process. For this edition of "NICA live", he invites cellist Judith Hamann (Australia/Berlin) and clarinettist Michael Thieke (Berlin/Rome) - two personalities who move with great sensitivity in the border region of composition, improvisation and sound research and with whom Schönegg has worked together in the past as part of his Enso sound ensembles. At the heart of this first encounter in this line-up is a radically decelerated musical dialog. Together, the three musicians develop a fragile, breathing sound architecture in which barely noticeable movements create great depth.
