about

Frank Gratkowski - Harri Sjöström - two distinct musical personalities, both driven by the free spirit of Instant composing as virtuoso instrumentalists finding themselves together on stage in a duo formation for the first time and the results of their performance are documented here.

This duo is exquisite - delightful what comes to the extraordinary instrumental combination of several reed instruments (Gratkowski contrabass clarinet, bass clarinet, clarinet, alto & sopranino saxophone- Sjöström on soprano, sopranino and alto saxophone),
as well as in terms of the potential of the players and the resulting tension - utilizing different genres in sonic language - constant iridescent between soundscapes, mood pictures. The large arcs being developed requires deep intuitive understanding of form and dynamics which is highly developed by these two players.
