Having studied classical piano for ten years, Düsseldorf based pianist / composer Volker Bertelmann's work as Hauschka is based upon a playful exploration of the possibilities of the 'prepared' piano - an adventurous intervention into the preconceived idea of the piano as a pure-toned, perfected instrument simply waiting for a gifted virtuoso to play on it. His resulting tracks are vivid, unconventional pieces made in a spirit of playful research-enthusiasm. Hauscka has been recording for the labels Karaoke Kalk and FatCat.

The result of a special performance from early 2010 in London and inspired by various shades of blue, two visionary forces on their respective instruments sees Volker Bertelmann on (prepared) piano and Hildur Gudnadottir on cello conjure up these pieces of incredible richness and intricate beauty. Highly recommended.
