Charlemagne Palestine is an alchemist of timbres and vibrant textures. He was shaped by his early musical experiences as a singer and later a cantor at the synagogue. At sixteen, he already performed on the carillon at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in New York. Early on, he began developing his own idiosyncratic technique for keyboard instruments (carillon, organ, piano) – “strumming,” a rapid and polymetric repetition of keystrokes producing powerful, shimmering clouds of sound with an extremely rich and variable texture of overtones, beats and vibrations. This intensively physical quality of sound piles up in his famous Strumming Music for solo piano, first released on his now legendary 1974 LP of the same name. Palestine performs Strumming Music on a large concert grand piano, preferably a Bösendorfer Imperial.
Jessica Ekomane is a French-born, Berlin-based live electronic musician and sound artist. Her practice unfolds through live performances and installations. Ekomane creates situations in which sound becomes a transformative element between space and audience. Her quadraphonic performances, characterized by their strong physical affect, seek a cathartic effect via the interplay among psychoacoustics, the perception of rhythmic structures, and the oscillation between melody and noise.
