Resonant Bodies
Resonant Bodies is a duo consisting of Zebedee Budworth (hammered dulcimer + electronics) and Rob Bentall (nyckelharpa and electronics). We aim to explore the spectacular sonorities of the ancient instruments we play, and how they interact with each other. We aim to marry these old technologies with new ones, processing the rich resonant instrumental timbres through electronic effects. The duo seeks to reimagine folk tunes through an improvised musical dialogue, allowing the rich sonority we piece together to lead our creative output.
For this performance the core duo will be joined by Sarah Heneghan.
