Mathieu Sylvestre / Giovanni Di Domenico
Two musicians, two approaches to sound: Mathieu Sylvestre (France) and Giovanni Di Domenico (Italy) meet for an evening of acoustic and electronic music. A concert that does not narrate but shapes listening spaces and textures.
🔷 Mathieu Sylvestre uses field recordings and analog synthesizers as the main sources of his sound. Noises and natural sounds are interwoven and articulated in electrified sound narratives between aural synaesthesia and spatial vibrations. With origins in the rock and experimental scene, he lives in Berlin and tours constantly since 2010 in Europe and worldwide, drawing inspiration from the different environments and places he visits.

🔷 Giovanni Di Domenico, a pianist with roots in jazz and contemporary music, composes and improvises in a way that seems both simple and enigmatic. His melodies emerge, deconstruct and reconnect, creating a sense of constant flow. With jazz piano studies and influences from Debussy, Luciano Berio, Borah Bergman, Cecil Taylor and Paul Bley, he shapes a sound that balances simplicity and complexity. He was born in Rome, grew up in Africa and lives in Brussels.
