ESKIL AND AARON

We listen to each other to hear ourselves.

questioning, joking, pushing each other, talking too much, letting the other speak, getting annoyed, being caught, misunderstood, fearful, powerful, challenged, comforted. Exploring ideas. A person to talk to, to write.

 

 

Words or Music. When we talk, we understand each other—and we don’t. The rules are basic. We misunderstand, reformulate, reinterpret, and then we understand again. Our understanding expands. The rules were never rules. Are we tense, expectant, or afraid? Are we happy, laughing, or comforted? Are we angry, stupid, or sad?

 

Eskil and Aaron is an improvised musical dialogue—determined only by you and by us. We met in Tallinn, Estonia, where we studied, recorded, and performed at the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre.

  • Eskil Roos (Malmö, Sweden) plays piano and studied at the Malmö Academy of Music.

  • Aaron Klenke (Berlin, Germany) plays saxophone and studied at the Berlin University of the Arts.

 

We recorded and performed in Berlin (UdK Berlin and Kunstfabrik Schlot). We are planning a performance and recordings in Sweden (Malmö Academy of Music). The recordings displayed were made in the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre where we met during our Erasmus Exchange and were. mixed by Anton Pelzer (@an.ton.meister).
