Zubin Kanga

• Electronic

How does the future of the piano sound? Australian pianist and composer Zubin Kanga examines this question. For this, he augments and wires up the classical grand piano with a lot of tech gadgets. His concerts resemble a happening which combines music with performing arts and promises a unique experience: a cyborg on the piano. Sensor gloves and a helmet, which looks like a mirror ball, but is also fully state-of-the-art technology – these are just two examples of the technical gimmicks with which Zubin Kanga gets never-before heard sounds from the grand. There is also artificial intelligence which complements the music with an equally exciting visual level.
