Karim Al-Zand: Music: Loop Studies
Loop Studies
for violin & loop pedal
Loop Studies was written during the covid-19 pandemic. Chamber music performances during the pandemic have often relied on asynchronous multi-tracking as a necessity. Loop Studies is a duet, but is playable in real-time by a single musician with the aid of a loop pedal.
