NICA live x CGNYC: Futurbarock x Chris Williams & Lester St. Louis

In the organizer's words:

20:00 I Concert I 🌿 GREEN ROOM

Two concert series, one evening: "CGNYC - Cologne meets New York City" meets "NICA live".

In the first concert of the evening, cellist Elisabeth Coudoux 's impulse brings together instruments from the 16th century with contemporary electronic sound production in an exciting dialog. Three string players and two electronic musicians represent a small but impressive section of a globally networked scene that is working on new sound languages and musical forms of expression. Based on string instruments as open, sonically diverse systems, the collective process gives rise to flexible, structuring modules - shaped by physically performative playing and the use of extended techniques. The international quartet creates an intermodal sound architecture that opens up new interfaces between acoustic and electronic sound with non-linear playing sequences.

In the second set, the electro-acoustic duo HxH from New York - consisting of the trumpeter and interdisciplinary artist Chris Williams and the cellist, composer and sound artist Lester St. Louis - meets the Cologne musicians Florian Herzog (double bass) and Fabian Arends (drums). HxH operate at the interface of improvisation, sound art and radical musical expression. With trumpet, cello and live electronics, they create immersive soundscapes that move between finely chiseled textures, driving rhythms and eruptive moments. Their concerts are dense, energetic explorations of space, time and collectivity - a maelstrom of sound and intuition.
