STUK

Displaced Sounds is a series of performances and presentations, organised by STUK arts centre and (K-RAA-K)3. Expect unexpected sounds, exciting evenings where listening and hearing are the keywords.

The work of French composer Eliane Radigue is first and foremost an exploration of the phenomenological reality of sound: the combination of matter, vibration and resonance which ultimately determines our experience of sound. She began to experiment with electronic feedback in the 1950s, before discovering her medium of choice, the analogue ARP synthesizer. Since 2004 she has composed exclusively for acoustic instruments. Naldjorlak I, in which the hidden, complex sonority of the cello is fathomed, was developed as a collaboration with renowned cellist Charles Curtis. For the following parts, she required the participation of basset-horn players Carole Robinson and Bruno Martinez. The result is a versatile and volatile sound world, which continuously balances on the verge of perception.
