Strøm Festival 2024: Multi-channel Round Trip

32 speakers are installed below ground in 32 wells all around the city square of Solbjerg Plads on Frederiksberg, allowing musicians and sound artists to create multidimensional soundscapes on a multi-channel sound system.

This year, Strøm has invited the duo Vanessa Amara and Francesca Burattelli & Minais B to create a piece each for Lydbrøndene (The Sound Wells).

Show up and explore your own sonic adventure in the city square - and experience how the square transforms with the sounds.

⚡VANESSA AMARA: CAFÉ AU LIFE
‘Café au Life’ is a reorganization of appropriated iconic musical material. It is both a processing of information as well as a reflection on context and “originality”.

The music of the Vanessa Amara duo (Birk Gjerlufsen and Sebastián Santillana) is purposely difficult to classify. They work within a patchwork of playful absurdity and contemporary classical music and has ten releases on Posh Isolation since 2013.

⚡FRANCESCA BURATTELLI & MINAIS B: THE WISHING WELL
The Wishing Well “Ønskebrønden” is a 32-channel sound piece revolving around the well as a portal to new realities. 32 hymns about thirst and longing. 32 lost wishes singing in choir. A love song wishing you well.

Francesca Burattelli and Minais B are Copenhagen-based composers and musicians. They are both tied to the local experimental music scene and have collaborated on several occasions from live shows to performances and releases.
