unassisted fold

Unassisted fold is a duo formed in 2011 by flutist sonja horlacher and guitarist flavio virzì. Focusing on developing new and original repertory for flutes and guitars they have been working together with composers and digital artists from different music areas. their instrumentation includes the whole family of flutes (from piccolo to bass flute) and classical, electric and midi guitar but also mandolin, banjo and e-bass. in 2014 they recorded an album of microtonal IDM (intelligent dance music) “uninterrupted disturbance” composed by Jukka-pekka Kervinen and published by finnish label limit cycle records. their interest in alternative tuning-systems and microtonality brought them to collaborate several years with german composer manfred stahnke and in 2018 they did a portrait CD of his music. unassisted fold has been invited to perform in several festivals around europe and since 2016, HighSCORE new music festival in Pavia(IT) invites them in summer to coach and perform new works written by young composers.
