west oakland sound series: a weekly new music and experimental sound series every sunday

TEOREMA BERTOLI (Italy) and TOM LANE (Germany) have been collaborating since 2002, in duo, in other ensemble, eg. the ensemble]h[iatus and in various multimedia projects. The special feature of the duo is the alchemy created by the meeting of the classical and the electronic instrument. The different nature of sound, the characteristics and histories of violin and analogue synthesizer could recall a friction. Actually, what happens is a sort of mirror game, in which the roles of the instruments are continuously exchanged. BERTOLI and LANE move in an abstract territory, their approach to sound is contemporary. Nevertheless their consideration to music is quite classical insofar as based principally on tension/release, rupture, intensity and expressivity in all its facets. Their first duo CD release was highly praised in numerous reviews.

The concert concludes with the duo joining THE OAKLAND REDUCTIONIST ORCHESTRA in an improvised set. A supergroup of local musicians with a predilection for lowercase/fricative/reductionist acoustic improvisation that often sounds more electronic than acoustic, this ensemble grows out of a rich tradition of “American reductionist” music that flourished in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s. Previous projects like Tom Djll’s Grosse Abfahrt and The Jack Wright Large Ensemble Eight By Ninedocument the Bay Area’s contribution to the genre.
