Using simple analogue electronic and preparations, these compositions reveal 'shadow aspects' of 'pianism' by transposing the way the pianist performs beyond the keyboard, and in the case of Thomas Wenks' Recordame, dispensing with the piano altogether. Sebastian Berweck is one of the most sought-after pianists in the field of experimental contemporary music. He has commissioned and premiered over 100 works and appeared as a soloist at the Salzburger Festspiele, ISCM World Music days (Switzerland, Stuttgart, Vilnius), Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, Spring in Heidelberg, Nous Sons Festival Barcelona and the Damstadt Summer Courses. He is the co-founder of stock 11.de, a collective of composers and performers and is researching performance practice issues surrounding music with live electronics at CeReNeM, University of Huddersfield.
