The duo of pianist Margaux Oswald and saxophonist Torben Snekkestad brings together two distinctive voices in contemporary improvisation.

Oswald’s highly sensitive and textural piano language—ranging from microscopic gestures to eruptive clusters—interacts with Snekkestad’s extended saxophone techniques, where breath, noise, and multiphonics expand the instrument beyond its traditional identity. Together, they create music that is both intimate and expansive, often shifting between extreme restraint and intense sonic density within a single moment.

Rooted in the European improvisation scene, the duo’s approach resists stylistic categorization. Instead, it emphasizes deep listening, immediacy, and the emergence of structure in real time.
