Miya (Modular Flute), Yumiko Tanaka (Gidayu Shamisen Electric Daishogoto)

Modular synthesizers offer infinite possibilities and flexibility. A modular synth is constructed by combining modules, individual components responsible for generating or processing sound. This allows for nearly infinite combinations of sound creation. Drawing from experiences in London/Berlin and activities in jazz and improvisation, including the launch of the Tokyo Improvisers Orchestra, musician Miya embarks on a modular synth and flute project in 2024. By incorporating and manipulating the flute's sound in real-time with the modular synth, this project transcends the limitations imposed by traditional instruments' structures, sculpting various soundscapes in harmony with breath.

Yumiko Tanaka is an innovative shamisen player, excelling not only in the traditional scene but also as an outstanding improviser. On this occasion, two musicians who push beyond conventional boundaries will explore the possibilities of acoustic and electric expressions as a DUO.
