Martin Klapper & Hein Westgaard
There will be beautiful, unexpected moments for curious and listening ears when violist Mat Maneri and guitarist Hein Westgaard play at Særingfest at Smeltehytta on Thursday.

The duo explores harmony as a living and unpredictable force, where melodic lines and microtonal nuances are woven together. Westgaard's creative use of both acoustic and electric guitar, together with Maneri's mastery of the viola, creates an exciting interplay that builds on deep listening and shared curiosity. The result is music that is both spontaneous and thoughtful.

The doors open at 18:30
