“Shiny steel fingernails across the blackboard of your soul.”
Efstathiou/Dyrnes features the piano-cello duet in an acoustic interplay, drawing analogies to the world of abstract electronic music. They focus their compositions on textural improvisations, intertwining the cello and the piano, in an expression that is tactile, lyrical and attentive. Driven by a fascination of sonic substances, they use preparations and extended techniques, always exploring and challenging the possibilities of their instruments.
