AVA, Resina X Christina Vantzou

A double bill of mesmerising cinematic instrumental music, featuring two international duos who explore the boundaries between classical and electronic music.

AVA is a duo formed by violinist Anna Phoebe and Berlin-based pianist Aisling Brouwer. Both acclaimed composers in their own right, the two met in 2016, and a mutual love of writing for film, art and dance inspired a collaboration. Their debut album, Waves, was released in July 2019 on One Little Indian Records (home of Bjork).

Like Anna and Aisling, Resina and Christina Vantzou are both successful solo artists. Resina is the alias of Polish cellist Karolina Rec, who has released two critically-acclaimed solo albums through the pioneering 130701 imprint of FatCat Records. Christina Vantzou is a Missouri-born, Brussels-based composer and experimental filmmaker, who has has released four acclaimed albums and collaborated with a wide range of artists, leading to performances across four continents. Despite using different tools, Vantzou and Resina share a musical language and unique approach to composition. From delicately distilled to intensely visceral, both explore the depths of the sound spectrum and the effect is stirring and timelessly immersive. We're thrilled that, in a UK premiere, Christina and Resina will be sharing a stage for a joint set.

It promises to be a truly special, surprising night.
