Savvas Metaxas / Giannis Arapis / Dimitris Tigas
Circular
Three musicians from diverse musical backgrounds unite to create Circular, an original composition crafted especially for this year's Subset festival.
This unique trio—featuring two electric guitars, a double bass and a modular synthesizer—merges different musical genres and traditions. On-stage, Savvas Metaxas (electric guitar, modular synthesizer), Giannis Arapis (electric guitar) and Dimitris Tigas (double bass) bring together distinct elements, influences, and methodological approaches from seemingly foreign yet intrinsically connected forms of musical expression. The ensemble’s original composition highlights its rich musical background and influences, ranging from jazz to experimental ambient and modern classical music.
Circular monitors the dialogue between the precision of modern classical music, the improvisational freedom of jazz, the immersive soundscapes of experimental ambient, and musique concrète. Through the use of electric guitars, double bass and modular synthesizer, the trio will blur the boundaries of acoustic and electronic sounds, creating a fluid sonic mosaic that shifts effortlessly between structured forms and modern composition. It is designed and addressed to avid listeners and music enthusiasts with an interest in contemporary fusion, experimental music, and the intersection of jazz and classical traditions.
