MICHAEL FISCHER - GANDOLFO PAGANO Gandolfo Pagano - prepared electric guitar Michael Fischer - feedback-saxophone

Gandolfo Pagano Sicilian guitarist, coming from a long experience between rock, blues and jazz. Since the late 1990s he has dedicated himself to experimental improvised music with a view to systematically overcoming the conventional limits of the instrument by focusing on timbral research; he builds masses and sound fragments using everything that happens during the improvisation itself. Gandolfo Pagano has collaborated with, among others: Tim Hodgkinson, Andrea Valle, Peter Kutin, Domnenico Sciajno, Anthony Pateras, Sean Baxter, David Brown, Cat Hope, Ramon Moro, David Chiesa, Lelio Giannetto, Domenico Sciajno, Jean-Marc Montera, Rossella Cangini,Tristan Hossinger, Eugene Chadbourne. Thomas Lehn. Ken Hyder, Michael Fischer, Alessandro Vicard, Tellef Ogrim , Jacek Kochan

Michael Fischer has been working since the 90s on the speech immanence of sounds and their sculptural and dramatic evidence, in contemporary Free Improvised and Experimental Music on the tenor saxophone, the feedback-saxophone and the violin; Michael composes fixed media pieces for ad hoc soundscapes for collaborative performances with poets in experimental poetry. In 1999, he began to integrate the electroacoustic phenomenon feedback into his instrumental work and developed a unique technique and an exclusively analog, no-effect-based instrument the feedback-saxophone: micro- and macro-movements of the instrument / fingers / body, creating the texture within an dialog of the sonic reflections of the space; further development of this instrument in residencies at ZKM / Karlsruhe or STEIM Amsterdam.He has worked with outstanding artists and early key-figures in improvised music, as well as significant artists in experimental poetry, conceptual art, visual poetry and dance/performance. In 2004 he launched the Vienna Improvisers Orchestra (a.o Moers Festival 2022, Wien Modern 2021) and works as instant composition conductor with numerous international large ensembles for festivals, universities and other institutions. Performances, tours, guest-lectures all over Europe, Libanon, Japan, the USA and Canada.recent release:FEED BACK SAXO FONE http://www.klanggalerie.com/gg483socials:https://www.instagram.com/michael_fischer_sound_spaces/https://www.youtube.com/@michael_fischer_saxophonehttps://m.fischer.wuk.at/feedback_saxophone.htmhttps://duolaurianopagano.wixsite.com/lauriano-pagano-duo

Dario Sanfilippo Order from Noise is a performance for a complex adaptive system. An autonomous recursive DSP network with elementary information processing and statistical mechanisms is activated with one millisecond of background noise from the environment; the signal, the sole sonic source, recirculates incessantly undergoing continuous transformations while the DSP network reshapes its relationships and structures. The system is left unattended for as long as the performer considers a sonic evolution completed; then, the system is reset and reactivated several times with a new impulse, showing how radically it can diverge from a perceptually identical initial condition. https://www.dariosanfilippo.com/

Daniel Schatz (Gitarre,Gimbri) und Michael Prehofer (Schlagwerk) eröffnen uns in simpler Besetzung Klangwelten, die für so manches Ohr neu sein dürften. Sie sind dem klassischen Songwriting ebenso zugetan wie der lustvollen Erkundung grenzenloser Klanguniversen.
