In Wake The Dead old and new music, improvisation and electronics come together. Morris Kliphuis and Joanna Duda create a hypnotic sound world of soft textures, restless ostinatos and fragments of melody, interwoven with the melancholic sound of baroque violin, traverso, and violone. The musical past enters into conversation with the present, and baroque instruments are approached with a fresh ear for their intimate, melancholic sound. A kaleidoscopic, spacious concert experience.

Hornist Kliphuis and pianist Duda met in 2019 during the Sound Out residency in Poland. They both have a career in the jazz world as well as a background in classical music, and both combine live electronics with acoustic instrumentation. When they discussed the possibility of a joint project, they soon discovered their shared fascination with the sound of baroque instruments.
