We are very proud to be welcomed “in residence” for three concerts at the Musikfestivalbern Festival 2025. This pleasure is twofold, as the composer in residence at the same festival is Svetlana Maraš — with whom we began collaborating in 2024 during an anthology concert with the trio 'Pony Says'. The theme of the festival, both simple and rich in contradictory meanings, consists of a single word: “Chains” — the bonds that connect us, the bonds that imprison us.
The three concerts we will present are perfectly in tune with this double meaning. They explicitely break with the codes of the classical concert, while constantly re-creating links with some of the great voices of the past, whose desires and rebellions continue to be our own.
