Peter Sheppard Skaerved, Aaron Shorr and the composer

In 2005, I was invited to Skopje to play a concert of new Macedonian music. One of the pieces that I played there was Mihailo Trandafilovski’s ‘Duo No 1’ for Violin and Piano. I was not able to spend time with the composer there, but a few weeks later, I invited him to the RAM to take part in a SOUNDBOX session. My collaboration with Mihailo began with that conversation. Here it is:

1.Intro and Duo
2.Rhythm
3.Music on the edge
4.Energy
5.Pedagogy
6.Conclusion
