Kittening

Kittening is a duo formed in 2021 by Alwynne Pritchard and Kjetil Møster. Exploring paradigms for improvising together that include working with text, visualisation, metaphor and movement research, Kittening strives to foreground practices that are often peripheral to music making.

Although Kittening can perform concerts as a duo (voice and saxophone plus violin and clarinet), the project is also an ongoing process of research that is open to input from people outside music (and the arts), as well as to radical shifts in direction. The format of Kittening’s work is flexible and can stretch from concerts, installations, and stage works to lectures and publications. Asking questions about format and context is an ongoing process for the duo, and where these questions might lead, they do not know.
