New series of events where we meet COMPOSER S IN FIRST PERSON. GROND Bijdorpstraat 1, Amsterdam, Netherlands 19:00 (do ors: 18:30) Donation based

IT’S ABOUT TIME!! proudly presents compos ers Thanasis Deligiannis and Amba Klapwijk!

Thanasis will share exce rpts from some of his recent works and talk about how he makes them. In hi s practice, he is interested in the creative process more than in composin g a predetermined result – working with time, resources, materials and spa ces as part of the composition itself, and being attentive to the differen t relationships that develop with collaborators. This also raises question s about what it means to call oneself a composer when composition expands beyond music, and when working across disciplines becomes transdisciplinar y. He would like to bring these questions into the presentation and open t hem up for discussion.

Thanasis Deligiannis is a n artist, composer and director based in Amsterdam. His work moves between sound, performance, visual installation and research, with a particular i nterest in the tensions and exchanges between rural and urban cultures. He composes experiences in time and space, designing the conditions through which a work can take shape. Alongside his artistic work, he teaches at th e Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

“I will present an ongoing project i n which I’m collaborating with pianist Carlota Carvalho and artist Akina Y oshitake Lopez. The project includes a musical composition for solo piano (Teder), a film, and a live performance. We will look at some video fragme nts of the film in progress, listen to Teder, and I will share my thoughts on this project and how we could continue.”

Amba K lapwijk is a composer and creator based in The Hague. She is inspired by landscapes, experiences in nature, poetry, philosophy and visual arts. Sea foam, seasonal changes, light reflections, long subtle sound changes, and immersiveness fascinate her. Her work includes musical compositions, i nstallations, film, poetry and photography. In 2019, she was artist-in-res idence at the Iowa Lakeside Laboratory in America, a biological field stat ion and nature preserve. Her work has been performed by the Herz Ensemble, Ensemble Klang, the Residentie Orkest, the Rotterdam Student Orchestra, K ristia Michael and the Kali Ensemble, and Input Duo.
