About this Event
Emmanuelle Parrenin has always been a collector of sounds: she learns music in a clandestine and instinctive way by reproducing on a piano the melodies she hears emanating from the family home.
In 1977, she released Maison Rose, a synthesis of ten years of folk career and exploration of traditional sounds. In 1990, following a serious accident, she became deaf. She heals by re-educating her ears through the sounds of her voice and the resonance of her instruments. Throughout her travels, she collects all kinds of healing instruments and is interested in music as medicine and all the traditional techniques that exploit the therapeutic dimension of sound.
In 2011, thirty years after Maison Rose, she recorded Maison Cube which continues the folk adventure as she always conceived it: mixed with psychedelia, jazz and shamanism. The years 2011-2012 marked her encounter with electronic music: Emmanuelle then multiplied the collaborations with artists like Etienne Jaumet, Eat Gas, Vincent Segal, Pierre Bastien, Detlev Weinrich aka Tolouse Low Trax... Her path crossed Colin Johnco in 2017 during a concert where he was invited, at the unbooted, to put effects on the instrumental variations of Emmanuelle. From there, the desire to create together takes shape and from encounters to improvisations, they gradually draw the outlines of a common project. Emmanuelle on composition, instruments and voice. Colin on effects and production.

Elisabeth Klinck is a contemporary violinist, composer and performer based in Brussels, Belgium. With a background in electroacoustic composition and theatre she navigates through emotional landscapes using intimate sound textures and atmospheric tones. She studied at the Lemmensinstuut, The Royal Conservatory of Brussels and at Academy for Music & Drama in Gothenburg, where she acquired a masters in Orchestral Performance.
Klinck’s work can be an overwhelming force, but fragile at the same time. Her debut album ‘Picture a Frame’ has been released on Hallow Ground (Kali Malone, FujiIIIIIIIIIIta,...) and is a beautiful collage that functions as a sonic diary for the time she spent in the Spanish Pyrenees with longtime collaborator Oscar Claus.
As a performer of composed and improvised music she often collaborates with different artists and organisations. This sense of community is as important in her music as it is in her day-to-day life. Previous collaborations include: Miet Warlop (One Song), Ben Bertrand, Lieselot Siddiki, Jarne Van Loon, OffOff Film, Kopergieterij, Benjamin Abel Meirhaeghe, Valgeir Sigurdsson and Nils Vermeulen and many more.
