ABOUT THE WIENER-WIESNER MALLET DUO
ABOUT THE WIENER-WIESNER MALLET DUO
The primal inspiration for Wiener-Wiesner compositions is the entrancing sound of tempered wood and metal.
Because of their multi-cultural musical activities one can hear, when they perform,
the timbre of the African balafon, the drama of the tango, the tone-painting of impressionistic music,
rhythms of Bali, odd-meters of the Balkans and jazz.
The Wiener-Wiesner Duo has made it its goal to play, write and publish new music for vibes and marimba.
Virtuosity, musical intensity and unique sound are the components that make up this new voice in the mallet percussion world.
