Info zu Luft - Air. Works For Saxophone And Bandoneon.

Im Projekt «LUFT» wird die historische Entwicklung des Tangos aufgezeigt, von der Theorie des Bandoneons als Orgel-Ersatz in Kirchen bis hin zum heutigen Tango Nuevo. Dabei stehen sich ausgewählte Tangos, Alte Musik, improvisierte Teile und Original-Neukompositionen kontrastreich und ergänzend gegenüber. Ein faszinierendes Klangerlebnis!

Im Projekt «LUFT» begegnen sich der in Basel lebende Argentinier Marcelo Nisinman und Maja Lisac Barroso, die Schweizerin mit slowenischen Wurzeln: Zwei Emigranten, denen die Suche nach Heimat mit der Lebensgeschichte mitgegeben wurde und die man zum grossen Teil in einer besonderen Musik wieder findet. Maja Lisac Barroso und Marcelo Nisinman konzertieren seit acht Jahren zusammen, in grossen Ensembles und seit drei Jahren auch im Duo. Das aktuelle Duo-Programm «LUFT» wurde in den SRF Studios aufgenommen, vom Schweizer Radio SRF koproduziert und durch das Label Prospero Classical veröffentlicht.

Die vielseitige Saxophonistin benutzt im Konzert Saxophone verschiedenster Grössen, vom Sopran- bis zum Kontrabass-Saxophon. Der Bandoneonist Marcelo Nisinman, besticht mit seinem filigranen Spiel und seinem ironischen Humor in seinen Eigenkompositionen. Die Besonderheit dieser Besetzung ist, dass beide Instrumente wie die menschliche Stimme durch Luft beziehungsweise Atem zum Schwingen und Klingen versetzt werden.
