Vilde&Inga is a young string duo playing acoustic free improvised music, featuring violin and double bass. By exploring nontraditional approaches to the instruments, the duo greatly expands their timbre palette. The wide horizons of colour allow the music to develop slowly and organically, yet with a keen underlying sense of compositional form. Vilde Sandve Alnæs and Inga Margrete Aas are classically trained musicians from Norway. They started to play together in 2010 and have studied at The Norwegian Academy of Music in Oslo. Vilde&Inga regularly plays concerts both in Norway and internationally. They have also played with Sidsel Endresen, Ingar Zach, Christian Wallumrød, Ivar Grydeland, Henrik Munkeby Nørstebo, Xavier Charles, Espen Reinertsen, Eivind Lønning and with the quartet Dans les Arbres. Festivals they have visited include Only Connect Festival of Sound, Vinterlyd festival, Ultima – Oslo Contemporary Music Festival and Sound Disobedience. Vilde&Inga’s first album, Makrofauna, will be released on ECM March 2014! from http://vildeinga.com
