Ryoji Ikeda is best known for his use of digital media to create electronic sounds that transcend the human audible range as well as large installations that surpass our sense of scale. However, the acclaimed sound artist has here written a new concert with pure acoustic sounds especially for the four musicians of the Swiss percussionist ensemble Eklekto. Employing such instruments as handclaps, cymbals and triangles, the concert comprises four pieces that interweave different styles and structures. While isolating the purity of sound, music for percussion nonetheless offers an aural experience of the same minimal soundscape from all of Ikeda’s work.
