Do this, do that... but not that and not quite yet - Matthew Grouse [2024]

for viola, accordion, live video, electronics + audience Video documentation: Spektrals Sound mix: Aske Vang Rasmussen Performers: Þórhildur Magnúsdóttir (viola), Jónas Ásgeir Ásgeirsson (accordion) and Matthew Grouse (live electronics) This performance took place at Ear Transplant’s launch concert at H15, Copenhagen 21.01.2026 About the piece: Two musicians stare intensely into each other's eyes and engage in a staring contest. If their opponent blinks, a chain of consequential sonic and performative responses are set into action. Eventually, myriad instructions that have been fed to the performers' earphones end up being addressed directly to the audience, who are invited to engage in various reactive games involving blinking, vocal percussion, deep listening, both with fellow audience members and the on-stage performers. The work was commissioned by SPOR Festival with support from KODA Kultur and Dansk Komponistforening and premiered by Duo Van Vliet in May 2024. About Ear Transplant's launch: A programme of works that engage with intense physical presence, focus and connection between the on-stage performers. Curated by Matthew Grouse and Joss Smith Ear Transplant are grateful to the following foundations for supporting our inaugural concert season, which also made documenting the events possible: Knud Højgaards Fond, Poul Johansen Fonden, Spar Nord Fonden, Dansk Musiker Forbund, KODA Kultur, Københavns Kommune, William Demant Fonden, Hoffman og Husmans Fond
