Udo Schindler, Sergio Armaroli

A cooperation between the two protagonists had been announced for some time. The first musical collaboration as a duo on October 18th, 2025 in Munich was unfortunately cancelled due to unfortunate circumstances. Our alternative was for Sergio to send me 5 vibraphone solo pieces, to which I would communicate with a selection of my wind instruments. Some identical ‘basistapes’ are interpreted by me with different wind instruments.

Since a real encounter has not yet taken place, a virtual connection from Munich to Milan exists, I have named the titles of the pieces after towns and mountain passes that lie in the linear connection of the cities from north to south in the alps, in the hope of soon coming together physically. All recordings are realtime - not edited.
