I/O Home – I/O

March 2015, 60min

I/O Home took place as a house concert in Amsterdam Noord. The I/O team prepared four individual pieces performed by themselves and a special guest, singer Elina Silova. The pieces were quite different from each other, devised for the specific house which hosted a grand piano in its living room, inviting a small audience of ca. 30 people.

The program consisted of:

Kieran Klaassen | a Skype-interactive piece, including a pre-made video of the city of Chicago

Thanasis Deligiannis | Test Pedal, for audience, live video and electronics

George Dumitriu | Trrrafffrrrreekk a phasing surround system in different rooms of the house triggered by improvisations on guitar and piano

Kaja Draksler | Canto XI, for a pianist, 2 percussionists, light designer, singer and a tape, based on a poem by Pablo Neruda
