Bruno Gussoni: shakuhachi
Bruno Gussoni (born in 1951) is a flute player who works in the field of free improvisation/instant compositions. He plays several flutes (C flute, alto flute, bass flute, piccolo, shinobue, ryūteki, shakuhachi), used to create a unique and personal language producing experimental flute sounds. He is not interested in the use of the flutes as “academic instruments”, he has given up on traditional techniques in favour of extended techniques like un-pitched breaths, multiple sounds, harmonics, overtones, whispers, microtones, keys percussion, and other sounds, all combined with breath, silence, soundscapes… exploring the acoustic possibility of the flutes, in the sound space and in relation with other improvisers.
