Featuring Ingrid Schmoliner on prepared piano and Alex Kranabetter on trumpet and electronics, the duo has been active in Austria\u2019s improvised and experimental music scenes for more than a decade.<\/p>\n<p>Schmoliner explores the acoustic possibilities of the piano, creating unusual textures, resonances, and spatial effects, while Kranabetter uses electronics to transform and expand the sound of his trumpet. Together, they create an adventurous mix of improvisation, experimental sound, and avant-garde jazz.
