On 31.5. at 18:30 duo Suva & Eero Savela will improvise outdoors at Villa Eläintarha, based on their new album “Synergy of NordOstra”. Everybody is welcome to join!
In the words of Suva presenting the project: “We chose the title, “Synergy of NordOstra”, and this is how we present our way of performing with the instruments. We call our duo NordOstra (Nort-East) because of the projects we have done, starting with the three years long sound art project for YLE, available Yle Areena under the headline Ääniversumi. We were invited to the Porto Art Alive festival in 2024, which coincided with the third version of our sound piece broadcasted on Yle Areena Radio. When we play together we create an organic tapestry combining self-made and conventional instruments, with an emphasis on improvised tapestry. Neither of us has much to say except expressing with our instruments.”
Eero Savela is a trumpet player who has worked extensively in music and performing arts since 2000. His work often involves interdisciplinary interaction with various artists.
Suva is a multi-disciplinary artist with a background in visual arts and primarily in Performance Art. He has been involved in various genres of music and improvisation is his key element. Here a 3D animation based on his ongoing sound instrument sculpture project.
