Pianist, composer and technologist, Zubin Kanga performs a range of work by composers that explores the emotion, and psychology, of the piano, drawing on sine tones, dated synth sounds and digital interfacing on his way to drawing up a new lexicon for his instrument.
The programme includes world premieres of works created for Cyborg Soloists by Simon Steen-Andersen, Georgia Rodgers and Kanga himself, as well as Laurence Osborn’s Absorber from 2019. Kanga’s set is positioned within a programme of work performed by members of Riot Ensemble, Nwando Ebizie, Lottie Sadd and Simon Emmerson + Irene Røsnes.
