Chuchchepat String Orchestra
sweet.sour
For the first time, the Chuchchepati Orchestra is playing with a larger line-up. Eight string instruments are doubled via 16 loudspeakers. The piece “sweet.sour” does not require a conductor and is conducted using only acoustic signals. The extensive experience of all the musicians involved calls for open musical spaces in order to allow the creativity of all participants to flow optimally into the piece. The instruments are distributed live through the loudspeakers in the room, slowly changing their positions and
creating a unique spatial sound experience. The natural resonance of the loudspeakers further enriches the overall sound of the string orchestra.
