- BartolomeyBittmann
Programme
Following the huge success of their latest award-winning album *z e h n* (German Record Critics’ Award),
BartolomeyBittmann focus their new program
“Best of BB” on the essence of their compositional work to date.
In the four programs created since then, the original compositions of
this progressive duo are characterized by strong emotional contrasts:
Meridian (2013) — finding a connecting thread, a musical path.
Neubau (2015) — the idea of creation through collaborative composition.
Dynamo (2019) — the dramatic element in music and performance.
z e h n (2022) — continuity and the embodiment of a philosophy.
The musical range of “Best of BB” extends from powerful rock riffs
and virtuosic, racing unison passages to intimate grooves and sensitive
melodic lines. The focus is always on the search for the acoustic
foundation of their classical instruments.
