Daniel Brandl

Daniel Brandl is a cellist, composer and experimental musician. He prepares his cello with objects and uses the computer as a second instrument to achieve sounds that are beyond the norm.

Manipulation turns the cello into an expanded instrument, with new, unexpected possibilities. In doing so, Daniel Brandl constructed a language in which sounds defined as unpleasant are interwoven with clear melodies to form improvised poetry.

He takes elements of western classical tradition and combines them with Jazz and electric music patterns.

He builds paths into chaos, somewhere between artificial intelligence and intelligent humanity.
