Mohammad Reza Mortazavi & Burnt Friedman (YEK) + Pak Yan Lau [CANCELLED]
Oriental sounds, mystical trance: tombak player Mohammad Reza Mortazavi in dialogue with electronics grandmaster Burnt Friedman, alongside a brand new ensemble work by Pak Yan Lau.
STUK closes its doors and cancels all public events until December 13, as a result of the measures imposed by the Federal Government on October 30, and out of solidarity with everyone fighting COVID-19. All ticket holders will be contacted directly.
Take care, and stay safe.
YEK is the collaboration between electronics grandmaster Burnt Friedman and Iranian percussionist Mohammad Reza Mortazavi, started from a shared interest in irregular, cyclic rhythms. Mortazavi's viruoso fingering on tombak and daf, two traditional Persian hand drums, blends delicately with Friedman's subtle electronics. The result is an ecstatic trip from dub and techno to traditional Persian music and back.
Belgian experimental musician Pak Yan Lau introduces her new project Bakunawa, an ensemble piece for five musicians. Expect a stage packed with toy pianos, metal tubes, harps and electronics. The compositions are inspired by Asian ritual music (such as gamelan), ambient and minimal music in the style of Philip Glass and Eliane Radigue. Fun fact: Bakunawa is a snake-like dragon from the Philippines. People loudly play pots and pans to chase her away.
