Breath & Hammer, the audiovisual concert project created by clarinetist David Krakauer and pianist Kathleen Tagg together with video artist Jesse Gilbert, returns to the Pierre Boulez Saal in a revised and expanded version for three nights only this June. Performed in a hexagonal, transparent “room within a room,” the program—which combines music from a wide variety of genres with original compositions, electronic sounds, and interactive video projections—is an extraordinary, immersive audiovisual concert experience. It was first seen at the Pierre Boulez Saal in March 2019.
In March 2019, David Krakauer and Kathleen Tagg joined forces with Jesse Gilbert at the Pierre Boulez Saal to create a new incarnation of their project Breath & Hammer, which they had previously presented in several cities internationally.
