In Etudes for Cornet & Electronics, Stann— the solo project of Stan Nieuwenhuis — embarks on an intriguing and innovative musical exploration. Drawing on the rich tradition of cornet études, from Arban to Vizutti, he reimagines this classical repertoire in an entirely new context.

With just one instrument, one effects pedal and one performer, Stann explores the boundaries of sound and expression. For this first series, he uses Red Panda’s Particle 2 granular delay pedal, transforming the cornet into a sonic laboratory filled with unexpected textures and shifting rhythms.

The étude becomes more than an exercise: it evolves into a journey where discipline meets experimentation, and virtuosity goes hand in hand with imagination. The result is an intimate yet immersive performance that continually surprises its audience.

With Etudes for Cornet & Electronics, Stann brings a fresh perspective to contemporary music, creating a concert experience that will captivate both seasoned listeners and curious newcomers.
