Fredrik Gran and Vincent Bahar are breaking new ground in the interdisciplinary field between art, technology and the human role in an increasingly digital age with their pioneering project Command;Improvise – a world-unique exploration of musical improvisation between man and machine. We will witness an unprecedented interchange between a human ensemble, a dance acrobat, and a robot, challenging and redefining the boundaries of artistic expression and technological innovation.
Fredrik Gran As a researcher, composer and pioneer in robotics, Fredrik’s innovative robot arms, that play cello, have garnered significant global attention and fascination. His work lies at the intersection of musical craftsmanship and advanced technology. Fredrik’s music has been performed internationally at festivals such as Warsaw Autumn, ISCM World New Music Days, and Nordic Music Days, and he has collaborated with the Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra, London City Philharmonics and the International Contemporary Ensemble.
Vincent Bahar Vincent Bahar integrates soundscapes influenced by experimental, classical improvisation and Persian culture.
