AXIS OF RESONANCE
Axis of resonance is a free improvised duo project. Jordi Pallares Barbera and Alexandre Cahen develop a space of interaction where simple piano melodies coexist with metallic grumbles, bells tinkling, repetitive patterns and avalanches of notes.
Through their instruments, the players produce a sound of wood and metal, that can be tender or torn apart.
