Germanus is completely at home in the perplexing microtonal sound universe. He has written challenging compositions for renowned ensembles such as Musikfabrik, the Calefax Quintet, and Asko|Schönberg. The festival will see the premiere of The Pleasance of Disorientation, his latest work, played by Sander Germanus & The Hallucinating Harmonists. As a soprano saxophonist, Germanus is part of this new eight-piece group that has applied itself to Germanus’ unique microtonal sound language. The instruments are specifically built for or adapted to this idiom.
