Ketil Duckert and IMP at the Soundpainting Laboratory!

We are living exciting times! At the next soundpainting laboratory concert Ketil Duckert from the Danish soundpainting ensemble Borderline will join Helsinki Soundpainting Ensemble on stage during two concerts. We will use minimalistic and polyrythmic textures as a starting point and then see where soundpainting takes us. Don’t miss it! It’s on:

Friday 10.2.2012 at 7 pm and Saturday 11.2.2012 at 7 pm.

After that, on Sunday 12.2.2012, three improvisers from IMP, the impro group of Studentteatern, will be at the soundpainting laboratory. IMP and HSE will create scenes and music based on a theme given to us by the audience. I’m really looking forward to it!

All the performances are at Luckan in Helsinki, Simonkatu 8. You can check out more info at www.luckan.fi/soundpainting.

See you in two weeks!

Check out the latest songs by Helsinki Soundpainting Ensemble!

We’ve added three new songs to our website. All three songs were composed live at the latest soundpainting laboratory and are based on texts given to us by our audience.

The song “Kyy” is based on a poem by Lauri Viita. The second song is based on the text “Tää mä en ajjo tehdä!!” ( =This I will not do!) and the third on the text “Definitionen på vansinne är att göra samma sak om och om igen” (=The definition of insanity is to do the same thing again and again). What do you think? Did we catch the essence of the text?

You can listen to them here.
