The Interstring Project
VOID
A quiet crackling, floating clouds of sound, pulsating basses, a distorted guitar like a scream: VOID by electric guitar quartet The Interstring Project is a surprising and thrilling concert experience. A collectively composed and staged collage of classical guitars, metal riffs, techno beats, and soundscapes with audio-reactive lighting and live projections.
All works composed by The Interstring Project.
The Interstring Project is an electric guitar quartet from the Black Forest (Germany) between Avantgarde, Ambient and Progressive Rock. With various types of guitars, effect pedals, cello bows, cordless screwdrivers, objects from flea markets, field recordings, live electronics and more they constantly explore the limits of their instrumentation. They combine original compositions, free improvisation and new works by young composers, creating unique concert situations with refined concepts for lighting, live visuals and sound spatialisation.
The ensemble has premiered works by renowned composers such as Henry Fourès and Sarah Nemtsov, and has collaborated with international partner institutions such as IRCAM Paris and ZKM Karlsruhe. Performances have taken them to Berlin (Hamburger Bahnhof), Hamburg (Kampnagel), Paris (Nouveau Théâtre de Montreuil), and Basel (Gare du Nord), among others. The Interstring Project was supported and funded by the German Music Council’s InSzene program.
