Raphael Rogiński presents Žaltys feat. Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė
The new album by Polish guitarist Raphael Rogiński, featuring Lithuanian singer and kanklės player Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė, is named after the grass snake Žaltys, a revered household spirit in Lithuanian folklore, and explores themes of mythology and nature. ‘Žaltys’ is deeply rooted in the rolling hills of the Suwałki region, in the northeast of Poland, where Rogiński spent childhood vacations and became intrigued by the music he heard from nearby Lithuania. Later, it was on the border with Dzūkija in Lithuania that he bought his first electric guitar, recording soundscapes on a four-track recorder in the forests; he returns to those techniques on this album.
Raphael Rogiński presents Žaltys feat. Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė is co-curated by Unsound, as part of the collaborative project TIMES (The Independent Movement for Electronic Scenes).
Venue: Pieterskerk
