Ruiskamer: Andrea Belfi + Maris Pajuste

Feldman’s Three Voices is typically performed with three singers, but it was originally intended for just one vocalist, accompanied by tape. Maris Pajuste offers you this original experience. Ethereal and questioning, dissonant yet clear; Feldman at his best.

Maris Pajuste

Maris Pajuste (1988) is an Estonian vocalist based in Brussels, Belgium, active as a soloist as well as an ensemble singer mainly focusing on contemporary performance. 

Her main interests lie in symbiotic co-creations and developing works through a collaborative performer-composer relationship. The voice is a universal instrument of sound that is inherently relatable. Every sound we make can be interesting or beautiful and thus connect the ordinary with the extraordinary. Through a collaborative process, you can mediate these voices which will always result in something unique. 

She is the co-founder of a newly born contemporary music collective TUUM.
