Composers group Monotàk hosts another benefit concert for GROND with duo the Annes (Anne La Berge / Anne Welmer), Thomas Myrmel with Dodó Kis and Sato Endo, and films with music from Ricardo Huisman and Christina Viola Oorebeek.
THE ANNES first met more than a quarter of a century ago. At that time they played a flute and a few laptops. A lot has happened since. It has been tremendously wonderful to meet again and play together. This GROND show is their first duo appearance after quite some time. This time they will play flute, a couple of laptops and more electronic devices and gadgets.
