Global Spring: Worlds Connected — Kärt Tambet
Worlds Connected is Kärt Tambet’s (Estonia) latest project that weaves together aspects of her own roots, experiences, and ideologies of life.
The project is inspired by reflecting on the different ways of understanding and interpreting the world, and the ways in which our own world may connect with other surrounding worlds through music making and even in everyday life.
Through the concept of Worlds Connected, a framework is created for the co-creation of sonic conversations between four diverse musicians; Oscar Beerten (Belgium) on violin, Adriano Adewale (Brazil) on percussion, Joni Vierre (Finland) on guitar, and Kärt herself on voice and violin. The resulting music is a symbiosis of Estonian traditional music, Tambet’s own compositions, improvisation, and above all, the unique sound world that is co-created by the whole group.
