Dieser Text ist nur in englischer Sprache verfügbar.

„quartets“ is a performance piece that happens only in the video streaming system. Eight musicians performed improvisation individually for the recording, as they imagined a session with the others. In this piece, the performances are blended or combined at random, and each time a whole new set of improvised music comes to exist. In „quartets“, we will conceive the meaning of ensemble and questioning how we could imagine „others“ in this isolated and increasingly complex situation.
