TITLE | Akkordgerät
This work is a digital device that simplifies chord performance, enabling anyone -even without musical training — to experience the joy and fulfilment of creating harmonies.
Inspired by active music therapy, which involves playing percussion in rhythm with a song, this piece has developed that method into harmonic expression.
By striking chords in time with the melody, users can sense the pleasure of performance while discovering the beauty of tension and release, and the musical richness within harmony itself.
