HMT Stage Night: Carolina Eyck Quintett
Carolina Eyck (voc, theremin), Vinzenz Wieg (g), Jacob Müller (b), Lukas Rabe (p), Stan Neufeld (dr)
The concert with Carolina Eyck and Vinzenz Wieg promises to be a special kind of encounter. With theremin - an electronic instrument in which the sound is produced by moving the hands in a magnetic field - and electric guitar, they move in the field of tension between jazz, classical modernism and new music. Composition and free improvisation flow into each other, harmony and counter-sound emerge from the moment. Thanks to a novel playing technique, Carolina Eyck is able to realize difficult sound constructions.
Carolina Eyck is considered the most important theremin virtuoso. She makes guest appearances at major festivals worldwide and works with renowned conductors and orchestras.
