The
list of concerts that have taken the Vienna Glass Armonica
Duo to many corners of Europe is long and fascinating, one
might almost say spellbinding. It is particularly long for
two artists who use the indisputable exoticism of their
instruments to create a rare aesthetic metamorphosis.
The
glass armonica is singing glass in bowls and the verrophone
is singing glass in tubes. The tones they produce evoke a
sense of enthralment and development (an expanded spectrum
of hearing. This is an unforgettable sound experience. It is
the pleasure of ever-expanding possibilities, the wonder of
an inexhaustible variety of combinations, the indescribable
beauty of pure sound.
