about


Composer, Soundartist, Bassplayer

An essential starting point of Strobl`s music is the natural sound-based potential on the electric bass guitar
and the electric upright bass. Hannes Strobl expands their characteristic repertoire of expression by using
special playing techniques in combination with live electronics.
Consequently in most of his music we hear the result from this complex interaction and mutual interference .
The separation between instrumental or electroacoustic music is dissolved.

He works in various audio and audio-visual fields such as performance, sound installation, composition,
music for theater and video. Sonic works created for different acoustic spaces from theatres, to clubs,
outdoor spaces and galleries are the backbone of Strobl’s projects.

In recent years Strobl’s interest in the instrument and his compositional work has increasingly focused
on musical forms of expression against the backdrop of urban sound space, as well as on installations and compositions whose starting point is the relationship between sound and architectural space.
