¿Qué Ruido es Ese?
Inspired by the sound peculiarities of the TRoneitor, built by Lucas Werenkraut from electronic scrap, and in conjunction with the vocal research that singer Natalia Cappa has been developing for years, the Duo TRoneitor emerged in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in January 2018.
The musical and sound work of Duo TRoneitor is based on improvisation, the use of multiple vocal resources, texts, pre-existing songs, images, and on the intrinsic nature of the sound generated by the instrument. The TRoneitor is entirely built with electronic scrap, which is an elegant way to call a particular kind of garbage that today’s society produces in absurd amounts. Recycling this garbage and creating sound and musical art from it, constitutes for Duo TRoneitor, as well as a path of artistic research, a way to openly question our consumption habits and discard as inhabitants of a planet of finite resources.
Duo TRoneitor
After several years of transiting singing, contemporary music, musical theatre and free improvisation, musicians Natalia Cappa and Lucas Werenkraut meet to deepen into their own research and sound experimentation by creating the Duo TRoneitor in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in January 2018.
Since then the duo has performed live in Buenos Aires with the visual artist and filmmaker Pablo Magne, working on the cross of languages in the Soundscraps project. Duo TRoneitor works have been streamed at International Festivals in Argentina, Colombia and Germany. Duo TRoneitor has won the award to the best National production for the video art “El Plata a su Derecha” at the International Video Art Festival of Buenos Aires in its 9th edition.
