Taking inspiration from a mix of diverse musical heritages including baroque and tuareg, TANDEM meshes contemporary experimental musical influences such as electroacoustics, minimalism and free improvisation.
The trio deploys a large instrumental palette through the improvised gesture, playing music totally oriented towards the present.
Sound and the act of listening constitute the core of this music.
