On Saturday 08 November, TEMPERATURA presents two improvisation sets by the trio Alternating Lunes and the duo La Berge–Konstantinidou.
ℹ️
Alternating Lunes are Kevin Toksöz Fairbairn, Siamak Anvari, and Leslee Smucker. All three artists involved in this project work with non-traditional approaches to instruments and sound. Leslee Smucker has developed a series of metal resonators for prepared violin; Kevin Toksöz Fairbairn designs and performs with hybrid acoustic instruments built from metal, wood, and strings; and Siamak Anvari composes electroacoustic works that frequently incorporate broken or recuperated instruments. Through this performance, we bring these distinct practices into direct dialogue—creating a collaborative framework where our methods intersect, collide, and evolve together. The title Alternating Lunes is based on a poem by American poet and artist Bernadette Mayer, whose work often challenges poetic conventions through formal experimentation and collaborative authorship.
Anne La Berge & Fani Konstantinidou have shared the stage several times in the past, though it’s been about three years since their last meeting. After all this time apart they have a lot to share: new sounds, ideas, experiments, nuances, and provocations.
The flutist, improviser, and composer Anne La Berge is well known to the audiences in Amsterdam and beyond. Her passion for the extremes in both composed and improvised music has led her to the fringes of storytelling and sound art as her sources of musical inspiration. Fani Konstantinidou, composer and live-electronics performer, is inspired by the sonic imprints of cultural and social identities and curious about the scapes of everyday life. Most of all, she is fascinated by (subtle) changes.

TEMPERATURA is a contemporary music concert series, improvisation hub, and everything in between. Initiated by composers/performers and GROND members Jasna Veličković and Fani Konstantinidou.
