A true pioneer, Suzanne Ciani has shaped electronic music through her myriad technological accomplishments. Don't miss this return to her first love: the Buchla synthesiser.
Camille Verhelst
Suzanne Ciani is one of the pioneers of electronic music. In her younger years, the American artist contributed to the development of the synthesizer, with melodic yet unpredictable sound explorations. Now she’s back with her first love, the Buchla modular synthesizer. Following the release of her new album Improvisations on Four Sequences, she will give a unique concert in a 4DSOUND setup in collaboration with FIBER Festival.
After a period of mainly playing piano and composing neo-classical music, Suzanne Ciani was rediscovered this past decade as a heroine of early electronics, at festivals and by younger kindred spirits such as Caterina Barbieri and Alessandro Cortini. For years she has been playing live with quadrophonic sound. Performing in the immersive speaker installation of the Dutch 4DSOUND is a logical progression.
