Francesco Tristano

Our Stay True Germany showcase with Ballantine's sought to highlight the creative intersection between electronic and classical music. A snug fit for the bill was always going to be Barcelona-based Francesco Tristano, a rare-breed composer who finds himself receiving as much praise from both techno purists as those devoutly supportive of the classical tradition. Here's proof of his powers: an hour of electronic experimentalism across a whole range of hardware and live instrumentation. There's even an impromptu collaboration with Brandt Brauer Frick to finish - dig in.
