rapidly curving lines, blurred textures and clear juxtapositions of timbral colors – listening to the music of hibiki can often make you think of a painting as much as music. three acoustically different instruments merge together, sounding sometimes homogenous, other times in stark counterpoint to eachother, creating a forceful collective energy that drives the music forward in a sometimes furious pace.
but despite the evident movement happening on the surface, a feeling of stasis remains. in the midst of dense activity, a larger form appears and things suddenly seem to evolve much more slowly. the rapid sections always have an implied slowness to them.
hibiki tries to balance between these opposites, remaining conscious to make decisions in moments with more activity, carefully choosing where to go next. they play improvised chamber music that always seems to move somewhere, omitting obvious climaxes and arriving with the listener at new and unexptected collective sollutions.
