"Resonant Conversation" is an experimental music project exploring the concepts of subtlety and nuance in conversation through the use of microtonal tuning systems. During the performance, each instrument will be tuned to its own system, drawn from the rich diversity of Iran's microtonal tuning systems, and the players will first perform a 25-minute composed piece and then participate in a 30-minute structured electroacoustic improvisation using analog sound processing techniques.

This project offers composers, performers, and audiences a new perspective on how nuances of emotion and meaning can be communicated through sound. The goal is to advance the practice of microtonal music in the Berlin music scene while providing a platform for intercultural exchange.
