about
Accordionist Eva Zöllner and Clarinettist Heather Roche are two of contemporary music’s most versatile and adaptable voices. Known for their independent travels in experimental performance and extended techniques, the duo come together in concerts of constantly changing aesthetics and approaches. Adventurous music-making, creative risk-taking and innovation characterize their work. They have been performing regularly as a duo since 2015. They have collaborated with composers including Christopher Fox, Pierre Alexandre Tremblay, Carola Bauckholt, Patricia Martinez, Elnaz Seyedi and Luis Antunes Pena, among others. Recent appearances include concerts at the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, Bludenzer Tage Zeitgemässer Musik, Mixtur Festival Barcelona, the Venice Biennale and a two week tour of Mexico. In 2020 they will be seen playing at festivals including the Darmstadt Summer Courses, Gaudeamus, Acht Brücken and KLANG, as well as a 10-day tour of Sweden in March with the hertzbreakers collective.
