Grand River

“First, I was a person, and then I became a river,” says Aimée Portioli about her biography and her artistic development – only fittingly, the Berlin-based producer makes music under the name Grand River. Her compositions are characterised by subtle repetitions and transformations and have an unparalleled, poignant intimacy. Her primary instrument is the piano, whose gentle figurations are entwined with acoustic and electronic instruments: organ, guitar, cello, and sampled voices. At donaufestival, she presents her current album All Above in collaboration with video artist Marco Ciceri.
The show will be with live piano by Andert Tijsma
