Arya & Sraya (Gamelan de Bali) + Navid Navab/Maya Kurocki/Rainer Weins/Sam Shalabi

First set highlights the gamelan duo CIRAT Sound, composed of Arya (I Putu Arya Deva Suryanegara) and Sraya (Ni Nyoman Srayamurtikanti). By combining traditional Balinese instruments, live electronics, interactive lighting, and movement, the artists create an immersive auditory and visual experience. The work affirms gamelan as a living tradition, embedded in contemporary sound art and performance practices. 

Second set features four Montreal-based improvisational musicians who, together, create a living sonic archipelago: Navid Navab, a gestural alchemist and explorer of micro-sounds; Maya Kuroki, vocals and movement, known for her work with the psychedelic-rock collective TEKE::TEKE; Rainer Wiens, on kalimba and guitar; and Sam Shalabi, an Egyptian-Canadian composer who blends Arabic, jazz, and punk influences. What unites these artists is an improvisational approach where gesture, texture, and sound intertwine to create a constantly evolving musical landscape.
