Almeida van Dongen / Tabula Sonorum

Double bassist Gonçalo Almeida and pianist Bart van Dongen have created their own sound world in playing together and on their instruments. The sounds are created by applying other playing methods and materials in their playing, in addition to the traditional ones. Almeida and van Dongen visit each other, deliberately ignore each other’s musical invitations, only to find each other again in their dialogue. Details matter and repetitive motifs also with this duo. Both musicians are storytellers on their instruments.
