Martin Kaltenbrunner, one of the Reactable inventors, will perform on the original instrument together with the experimental thereminist Günther Gessert, playing one of the oldest electronic musical instruments. Within an electro-acoustic performance, the physical interface of the Reactable will contrast with the intangible interaction on the Theremin. Before the actual evening concert, participants will have the opportunity to try both instruments in an afternoon workshop.
Günter Gessert
Günther Gessert has been performing professionally on the Theremin since the early 90ies. He played concerts in Austria, Russia, Germany and the Czech Republic, and was a member of the „International Theremin Orchestra“, which recorded the CD „Touchless“. Gessert also develops his own sensor interfaces for musical performance, and adapted his Theremin in order to meet his musical requirements. His special fascination for the Theremin is driven by its bodily sensual component, which is quite remarkable for an electronic instrument.
