Dialog

Sara explores how putting vibrant matter in and out of sync reveals the fragility of the world in which we live, particularly in the attempt to stabilize vibrations in rational tuning.

Acoustic and non-material processes of resonance are a main interest for her, both as a violinist and composer, experimenting with gut strings, instruments with resonance strings (viola d'amore, hardanger fiddle, tromba marina), as well as with melting wax paintings through which Sara reflects on the materiality of tuning, avoiding a partition of the sensible.

A conversation with the artist, moderated by saxophonist Marcus Weiss, rounds off the evening.

With

Sara Cubarsi (violin); Marcus Weiss (moderation)

With works by Hildegard von Bingen, Marc Saba, Wolfgang von Schweinitz and Sara Cubarsi.
