We Love Francesco Tristano & Carl Craig

Tuesday, September 13th, 2011

We’re never shy of taking a risk here at We Love, bringing a concert pianist and a grand piano into one of the world’s temples of dance music could certainly be considered so. It’s never entirely surprising when two avant-garde musicians come together from across musical divides, but in Ibiza it’s not so commonplace.

Take one part Detroit techno legend, add a bit of Juilliard trained classical protegé, a piano imported from Valencia and a few thousand cosmopolitan clubbers in Ibiza and check out the results below. Carl Craig and Francesco Tristano will be joined this Sunday September 18th in the Discoteca by our Kompakt brethren Ewan Pearson and Michael Meyer, check the event page for full lineup, TICKETS HERE.

Each trigger from the musicians causes interactions with the visuals above them. Parts of the performance have been recorded as raw material for further production in Detroit.

This recording took place last night, and a very special night it was indeed. The performance begins at around 34 minutes. Recording by Arte.
