| Summary: | As members of the LP Duo, for the past 14 years we have experimented with
various possibilities of playing on two pianos. Our artistic curiosity and
the desire to gain new knowledge and freedom led to our involvement with the
Quantum Music project and the creation of a new instrument - the hybrid
piano. In this paper we elaborate on our experience with using the new
hybrid pianos within the Quantum Music project, but also discuss our
ensemble as an artistic embodiment of duality, entanglement and other
quantum phenomena. Hybrid piano is a combination of a traditional piano and
digital synthesizer with analogue controls that allows different processing
of acoustic and digital signals in real time and enables the pianists to
continue to use concert pianos whilst equipping them with new colours and
new, hitherto unexlplored expressive possibilities. |
