Lost In Sound
Alexandre Kordzaia: «Lost in Sound» – Videogame Presentation/Performance Giorgi Koberidze: «Mur Mur» – Sound Installation

The second evening takes place on February 16 at the Mutant Radio Concert Space and will feature a premiere in the history of the festival: With the work «MurMur» by Giorgi Koberidze, musician and sound artist from Tbilisi, a sound installation is on the festival’s program for the first time. And also Swiss-Georgian musician Alexandre Kordzaia will be breaking new ground. He provides insights into his upcoming project «Lost in Sound» that will be premiered in Holland in 2026 together with the Dutch ensemble Asko Schönberg. Alexandre Kordzaia is developing a work for this ensemble that is not simply a composition, but a video game that involves playing and composing in equal measure. Both works invite the audience to interact in very different ways.

 

Since its founding in 2005, the festival Close Encounters has brought together emerging and established musicians from Switzerland and Georgia. Initially focused on contemporary and classical music, Close Encounters has expanded over the years to encompass a broader range of styles, capturing the pulse of both the Swiss and Georgian music scenes and fostering cross-cultural dialogues. The festival’s focus has evolved to incorporate new trends: in 2011, Swiss compositions were featured prominently, while subsequent editions from 2013 onwards broadened the festival’s scope to include improvisation and experimental electronic music from Georgia.
Despite given current political and cultural challenges in Georgia, local cultural actors are keeping a diverse and dynamic cultural scene alive in Tbilisi. Their eff orts and our conversations with them were pivotal in deciding to proceed with a compact festival edition in February 2025. Plans for a Swiss edition of the festival are underway for later in the year.
