The Cooperation between the composer/zither
player Leopold Hurt and the electronic musicians/DJs Andi and Hannes
Teichmann dates back to a common performance at the festival “Zither
4” (Munich) in 2001. What started as a spontaneous, spur of
the moment collaboration between musicians from apparently very
different musical spheres soon became a long-term project.
one of the first highlights of this rather unusual combination was the joint venture of performing a live soundtrack to the newly restored silent film “der heilige berg” (“the holy mountain”) (1926), a german alpine drama starring luis trenker and leni riefenstahl. they subsequently performed the live set at “insight festival” in hasselt and during the festival “zither 5” in munich. they have performed their live accompaniment to screening of “der heilige berg” at various worldwide events, such as “serious pop festival” at the cultural centre “wuk “ in vienna and the cultural conference "deutschlandpromenade" in china, october 2007 as part of the "lange nacht der klassik filme" (long night of classic cinema).
The musical starting point of the teichmann hurt project is the
string instrument, the zither, whose live sounds are sent on an
acoustic journey. With the help of a loop station single phrases
are recorded and played back; creating a repetitive pattern that
builds a musical framework for the sampler and the laptop. Extensive
sequences will be drawn out in the process via delay loops, as well
as bandhall and other effects that together construct musical landscapes
in which the zither player is allowed to move around freely. This
mosaic of sound is accompanied by an electronic foundation provided
by a drum machine and a Moog synthesizer, which in itself gains
a particularly individual sound thanks to the zither.
Due to the nature of these live performances, with instrumental
interaction on the one hand and effects on the other, the final
musical form of each individual performance is only ever realized
in the moment. Each and every concert is a new experience for musicians
and audience alike. Clearly defined song structures interchange
with improvisation of ambient character that fluidly evolve against
an organic time signature. This unique effect is amplified by the
use of historical sound material (samples) taken from the classical
repertoire as well as from Alpine Folk Music.
