Andrea Ermke and Anaïs Tuerlinckx
Anaïs Tuerlinckx (inside piano/string box) and Andrea Ermke (mini discs) have been playing as a duo since 2012.
They meet in their approach to the manipulation of varied sound objects and for their love of repurposing obsolete or invented musical instruments.
Their aesthetic reflects, for each, a love of material and texture, without artifice.
In 2013 they set up a residency and concert project @ Ausland, Berlin, around a bag filled with found objects accumulated over the years which they call “the composer has falled asleep“.
During the pandemic, they both separately worked on a piece for the project called “totes Holz“, commissioned and realised by Christina Christina Ertl-Shirley and Lena Mahler.
10 years after their first concert, Andrea and Anaïs release a digital album on the Glasgow label Scatter Archive. This is a live take of a one-hour radio work produced on the free FM radio in Ulm. (https://scatterarchive.bandcamp.com/album/stadthaus-ulm)
Anaïs and Andrea also collaborate regularly together, in diverse and variable projects, notably with musicians such as Burkhard Beins (and their trio called Toggle), Mazen Kerbaj, Bryan Eubanks, Andrew Lafkas, Ignaz Schick, Joe Foster, Jean-Paul Jenkins , Peter Cusack, Bertrand Denzler,…
