burja from burja by D i G (Dušica Cajlan, Georg Wissel)

D i G
Dušica Cajlan - amplified zither, objects
Georg Wissel - augmented alto sax, clarinet

Burja is the first of two album releases from the duo‘s recordings, made during our tour to south-east europe in October 2025.

On a stormy friday in October 2025 D i G arrived in Lokavec, Slovenia. Outside Klub Štala the Burja* blew like mad (you might even sense it on some quiet parts and at the end of the recording).
Whereas inside the venue we somehow seem to have translated the meteorological energy into our interaction.

*Burja is a northerly to north-easterly katabatic wind, which is an integral feature of Slovenia's Vipava Valley

*********************
Cajlan and Wissel are working together as a Duo since 2014 focussing on contemporary free Improvisation and has been performing in Germany, Belgium, Serbia, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, USA, and at Audio Art Festival in Kraków, Poland. Mainly playing free Improvised music,

DiG has also worked in combination with special topics and in cooperation with artists from other genres. In this way the Duo has developped programs like e.g. ‘tragovi_tracks’, where they incorporated traditional songs from the west-balcans into their Improvisations and worked together with visual artist Irma Markulin in a sound/installation performance in Belgrade and Cologne as well as in the New Music Theatre - Production „The Suitcase/Der Koffer“ with Composer Ljiljana Jovanović in the USA.
