Voices at the End for six pianos
05.07 — 06.07.2023
Description
The only piano ensemble in the world Piandaemonium presents for the first time the work Voices at the End, a multimedia composition for six pianos by the New Zealand composer of Greek descent John Psathas, accompanied by pre-recorded sound parts and the documentary-film Planetary by activist Joanna Macy. The work will be presented in combination with Dimitris Economou’s Antiphenomena, a Piandaemonium commission, which will be given its world premiere. The two works treat climate change and its effect on human activity and everyday life.
Piandaemonium was founded in 1998 in Thessaloniki on the initiative of Domna Evnouchidou and initially consisted of herself and eleven former students of hers. Since then, the ensemble has evolved, has changed its composition many times – although its core has remained unaltered –, and has appeared in many concerts. A company of musicians fights against the pianist loneliness, creates a piano orchestra and attempts to redefine the traditional piano sound in a new context.
