Reni Weichselbaum - Recorders
Bernhard Loibner - Electronics
This instrumental duo is dedicated to conversations between instrumental and electronic sound waves. It is a meeting of two musicians developing an improvised dialogue which melts sonic textures and musical gestures into manifestations of movement and stillness. Their aim is to lead the audience towards a practice of active listening within various figurations between silence and noise. The sublime timbres of the Paetzold-Recorder and other reed instruments meet pulsating oscillators, abstract sound layers and noise elements from analog and digital electronic instruments. This results in expressive to meditative acoustic formations with vigorous effect on the recipient.
The duo works together since 2016. They have performed a number of concerts and continue to develop their common sonic vocabulary and use of musical forms.
The duo has released a vinyl album on the Vienna-based Moozak label in November 2023.
