Gina/Mizar5: "This is what you get when throwing a pebble into a pond. Circles spread in concentric motion. We have a piano, something funny from Garageband ( Floating Embers ) and Saskia Laroo on trumpet. The piano is played by Koen Scherer, it's his improvisation. I just added the synthetic sound as a learning experience mostly. I then asked Saskia whether she'd like to add some trumpet."
And she did.
We're curious how other musicians feel about "Love", which is the title of this short piece. So we asked a few. Chico Huff (bass) and Georg Wadenius (guitar) will also participate in this Improv project and share their musical impressions of "Love". Interested as well? Then please leave a comment or drop us a message and we'll send you the mp3's. There are four options so far. You can take a pick or work with them all. Piano, piano-synth, piano-trumpet, piano-synth-trumpet. Who knows where these circles may lead us!
JoPie also created a version of their own, you can click the link or check the Dutch Volkskrantblog about their specific take on Koen's improvisation.
Kathinka Poismans (musician-music therapist) works with autistic children. She studied Classical Piano at the Conservatory of Maastricht (the Netherlands), has a Masters degree in Music Therapy and is starting up a research project (of 4 years), which will complete her studies in the field. This Perpetuum Mobile-Improv Project, concentric motion will in some way be connected to her research program. Our goal is to document the relationship between music, (autistic) people, efforts of communication and its outcome. Your participation would be much appreciated!
