Together with three of the most adventurous pianists around, cutting-edge violinist Monica Germino presents ROADMAPS AND DIARIES: an eclectic mix of ground-breaking new music, film, improvisation and installations. Each of this evening’s versatile performers shares a certain rebellious streak, as well as a penchant for performing unconventional feats and going beyond the limitations of their instruments. New technologies, images, singing and interdisciplinary collaboration are often integrated in their performances. Featuring a multimedia work by Piet-Jan van Rossum, Arnoud Noordegraaf’s dissociation-music & film-installation for two Monica’s, & much more.
