Post Bar hosts the afters for ”Dawn Till Dawn”, the new exhibition created by Estonian artist Edith Karlson. The exhibit opens in Kiasma this Friday.

The vernissage calls for celebration, a cheery atmosphere, while tastefully tipsy off the sparkling.

So, we got Raul Saaremets, and Kris Luigend keeping the Bar’s atmosphere tight, cozy, and talkatively imaginative, with deep sensations, leftfield curations, and the funky things. ”Ooh, the music!”

Thursday lovin’, in the best company.

Italian percussionist and sound artist Alberto Anhaus is arriving in Helsinki to perform at Post Bar on the 17th of April.

Instead of treating the percussion instruments in the traditional way, as independent sources of sound, for Anhaus, playing them is a way of listening and engaging with the vibrations we are already surrounded with. He's interested in situations where the focus is on presence and gradual transformations of sounds, rather than virtuosity. Anhaus describes his approach as follows: “I’m interested in what one could call an “armless” way of working: moving away from virtuosity and gesture toward systems that can sound by themselves, where the performer becomes more of a listener or caretaker.”

The works by Pauline Olivero’s, Ash Fure, Alexandre Babel, Fabio Machiavelli, and Anhaus are united by concentrating the focus on continuous micro-variations of sound. The opening piece of the concert, Olivero’s Single Stroke Roll Meditation transforms a simple playing technique into a meditative sonic field, where repetition shifts the listener’s focus from pulse to the breath of sound itself. Ash Fure’s Shiver Lungs II  on the other hand, builds dense textures rather than precise rhythms. The evening concludes on a high note with Anhaus’s quasi-improvisational piece DRMS and NNPT and CNTCTMCS, performed together with cellist Tara Jovana Valkonen.

The collaboration between Avanti! chamber orchestra and the Helsinki-based nightclub Post Bar draws inspiration from Central Europe, where contemporary music, sound art, and electronic music converge without boundaries and form part of the pulse of major cities.
