Tiuntaka

Tiuntaka
Armando de Angelis, Nicola Campanella
Tiuntaka may take the form of classical melody and harmony, or it may be transfigured into rhythmic pulsation and sonic effects, framing arrangements, adaptations, and transcriptions of more contemporary works.

Tiuntaka is a percussion duo whose repertoire centres around mallet instruments such as marimba, vibraphone, and glockenspiel. The ensemble was founded by Nicola Campanella and Armando De Angelis, percussionists who have long explored musical genres and idioms adjacent to the classical tradition, pursuing a path of continual artistic evolution. Their music results in a fusion of sound and rhythm through the resonance of wood and metal, and the intricate interplay of these two materials. Tiuntaka has performed at prominent festivals including Autunno Musicale in Beinasco, Accademie in Valle at the Teatro Civico in Caraglio and the Confraternita di Limone, the Long Lake Festival in Lugano, and the Radici del Futuro Festival.
