Arosa Sounds - Traffic

Two pianos. A journey through sound and movement. With Traffic, the Bernese composer and pianist Simon Ho presents his latest work – a 13-part suite for two pianos, inspired by being on the move: train stations, hotel bars, markets, highways, encounters in transit. Together with André Dubois, with whom he shares over ten years of musical partnership, Ho creates a poetic cinematic experience full of energy, tension, and fine nuances.The music is sensual and cinematic at the same time – sometimes siren-like and playful, sometimes driving and urban. As the Bund writes: “Music that seeks adventure and unearths beauty from unevenness.” A piano duo that touches, surprises, and takes the listeners on a fascinating sound journey between chaos and harmony.
