Annabelle Plum & Žaneta Vítová

Annabelle Plum & Žaneta Vítová work together on music for experimental voice and accordion. Their work is colored by an unusual sound-poetic painting meandering between everyday mundanity and intense emotionality.
The composed parts are combined with spheres of free improvisation. Using extended techniques of playing instruments, the authors draw inspiration from the European musical tradition and also from the roots of world music.
Singer Annabel Plum uses her voice ranging from soprano to massive contralto in a wide range of timbres.
Accordionist Žaneta Vítová draws inspiration from jazz and contemporary music.
In parallel with this project, both musicians collaborate on their own independent music careers.
Both perform with renowned orchestras and ensembles in the Czech Republic and abroad.
Their joint live performances draw listeners into an unknown world, where feminine fragility meets unbridled roughness (vibrancy?) in harmony.
