As part of the summer festival ›Shifting Grounds – IN COMMON‹, Nadzeya Karakulka creates a dialogue between the unique sound of the cymbal – an instrument full of subtle vibrations, clear resonances, and surprising timbres – and the slag heap.
The internationally renowned cymbalist performs works by Ivano Onavi, whose musical language is characterized by modal structures. The compositions combine a unique sonic aesthetic with rhythmic energy, creating spaces that bridge archaic echoes and contemporary expression. In the process, the cymbal reveals its full versatility: at times delicate and ethereal, at others powerful and dynamic. The individual sounds unfold like trails beneath the open sky, inviting listeners not only to hear the music but also to experience it as atmosphere and movement.
