Artist statement by Ilia and Kirill:

"Before the concert, we hadn’t discussed much of what we will be playing. Kirill proposed to place the "June ’21" score on the table, to follow the impression, the feeling, the direction of what it suggests to play. Sometimes we noticed how one part of the score or another would lead us to new ideas whilst we were playing.

It was a special concert because of its circumstances. We decided to have one big table for both our setups, and to be standing up during the performance. Kirill used some objects, electronics and field recordings. Besides zither, Ilia played on a tamborim and music box, instruments he hadn’t yet used before. It was important for them to perform with these fresh and exciting materials.

The surrounding environment was very different from the sterile and almost claustrophobic one at the earlier concert in June 2021. At the beginning people were still chatting, and when they stopped we began to hear the sounds from the street outside. Luckily, our recorder managed to capture this atmosphere perfectly. And, while it's not necessarily a high quality recording, it has its own character that effectively translates the music we played that night."

Artist bios:

"Ilia Belorukov is a musician from Saint Petersburg, Russia. He works in the directions of improvised, noise and electroacoustic music. He’s widely collaborating with local and foreign musicians and performers. Ilia practices an experimental approach of sound extraction on alto saxophone, using modular synthesizer and other instruments. His works were released on such labels as Clean Feed, SOFA, Moving Furniture, Astral Spirits, Notice Recordings, Raw Tonk, Mikroton and many others. Also he is a founder of Intonema label and was one of curators of Spina!Rec label. Organizer of events in Saint Petersburg and Russia, was co-organizer of the Teni Zvuka and Spina!Fest festivals. He writes reviews for Jazzist and notes about music as musicworm in Telegram channel.

Musician, composer, performer, poet and independent curator Kirill Shirokov focuses mostly on longform situations and pieces with silences, movements, field recordings, melodies, noises, interdisciplinary connections. Often based on the hearing/listening attentivity. While working with composed, improvised, performative, stage music, he is observing close attention to the extensions of momentical. Performers of his music are La Gol, Alter Ego, The Same, Leo Svirsky, N'Caged, Eva-Maria Houben, MCME, Dante Boon, Vacuum Quartet, Germaine Sijstermans, Koen Nutters and other musicians with wide range of personal focusings.
In collaborations Kirill is exploring sound/time relations and pure sonic experience with a diapason of settings on different musical fields, as well as with visual and performance artists, literators, theatre/film directors.
Works were released on the Steep Gloss, Edition Wandelweiser, SUPERPANG and other labels.
Performer of compositions by Antoine Beuger, Laurence Crace, Jürg Frey, Alvin Lucier, Johan Lindvall to name a few. Previously curator of the DianaPlaysPerception ensemble and Silent Music Consort.
Kirill's also active as lecturer, mainly thematizing the experience of perception, teacher-practicer for music/sound, and independent researcher exploring contemporary artists' experiences as well as historical motives."
