Maarja Nuut (guest) 

Maarja Nuut is a fiddler and singer from Nothern Estonia who is fascinated by the tunes of old village musicians and mind-boggling but at the same time structured patterns. The minimalistic sounds of the looper take the listeners on an imaginary journey over the constantly changing soundscapes which combine traditional dance tunes, songs and stories with live elettronics.

Her music has been described as peaceful but not in the lazy inactive sense. In her music, she is searching for a lively and relaxed state similar to a cat that is ready to take off in a moment's notice.  It is always “now” and old tunes are as fresh as improvisations wich were born a second ago”. This is how she tells us her intimate stories using fiddles, her voice and modern electronics.

event by divertparty

Divertparty performances are produced as an “unicum” . their plots have a lot of scene changes, the event itself is a combination of music and theatre plays that can be modified every time , as there are many and different guests coming on stage .

Usually the band has the guest’s role therefore each event is different from the previous one by making the show developing during the time passing.

Beppe Castelluzzo , the inventor of Divertparty has taken some traditional performances as a starting point to introduce new original elements. The performances are characterized by a surrealistic atmosphere and have a metaphysical connotation .
