Odd

Violinist Gaja Sušelj and cellist Toby Kuhn light up the stage with a fiery blend of Balkan tunes, inspired by the rich traditions of Bulgaria and Macedonia, mixed with their own daring and captivating compositions. Their passionate performances and bold arrangements keep audiences riveted from the first note to the last.

Their music bursts with energy, seamlessly shifting between lightning-fast, virtuosic passages and tender ballads, with intricate pizzicato moments that make every note shine. Their debut album, Odd, is an invitation into their world: vibrant, unpredictable, and unapologetically original. From traditional gems like Piperkovo Oro (a rhythmic adventure in 11/8 and 7/8) to their own creations, Odd transforms each piece into a thrilling experience full of intensity and playfulness.
