New music for traditional asian instruments and electronics

Vietnam is the focus of this worldwide event series “Traiect”, now in its fourth edition with the Vietnamese musicians Ngô Trà My (Đàn Bầu monochord) and Vũ Thị Thùy Linh (Ả Đào singing). TRAIECT stands for Traditional Asian Instruments and Electronics.

In the concert, Trà My and Thùy Linh will perform seven (7) new pieces of composers from Colombia, England, Italy, Germany, Iran and Vietnam, written especially for the Đàn Bầu instrument and the Ả Đào singing in the combination or confrontation of electronics. These music pieces feature the efforts of TRAIECT in bringing the new aspect of listening to the traditional Asian instruments.

The project of the The Hanover Society for New Music (HGNM) takes place in close collaboration with FMSBW, the electronic studio of the Hanover University of Music, Theater and Media, and is made possible by the Federal Cultural Foundation, the Lower Saxony Foundation, and the city of Hanover.
