Sibafest: Inside piano’s jaws – extended techniques
This event is an opportunity to get an up-close display of the sonorous playground that people more often call; the Piano.
During the last century composers and pianists recognized the unusual and immense potential of this instrument and developed new ways to work with it.
This “newfound” practices (only 100 years old) are called “extended techniques” and many of them will be demonstrated during this workshop along with a brief historical overview and the challenges they entail. Lambis Pavlou will lead the workshop.
Places are filled in the order of arrival. The doors will open 15 minutes before the event starts.
