Tomoko Miyata (waterbowls)
Gilles Aubry (live sampling)
Ambient meditative improvised music.
Tomoko Miyata improvises on waterbowls, a self-invented percussion instrument made of Chinese porcelain bowls filled with water, inspired by an instrument of carnatic music (south india), Jalatarangam. The pure and delicate melodies are live-sampled and slightly processed by Gilles Aubry to
create new layers of sound mixed with the original ones.
They come together with a highly meditative music which illusion of
polyphony generates a sensation of pleasant vertigo.
Born in Japan, Tomoko Miyata studied classical and jazz piano in Japan and
NYC. Then she worked in Tokyo as a jazz pianist and electro-acoustic
musician and now lives in Paris where she started with her waterbowls
instrument.
