Tri dela

The composers of the three new works by Šalter Ensemble, who are also its members, bring heterogeneous experiences to the repertoire, from classical studies, researching through improvisation, working with electronics, the practice of sound art and playing jazz to creating in other media. Their works reached their final, performed form through the musicians’ cooperation – from the initial idea, which the ensemble tested, developed, adapted and perfected in an intense period of rehearsals, workshops of sorts. Extract from the liner notes by Primož Trdan.
