2025 is the offi­cial Year of Quan­tum. But could quan­tum sim­u­la­tions be used to influ­ence sound in real time?

Dur­ing his con­cert — the cul­mi­na­tion of his doc­tor­al research — Bartłomiej Sutt will not only answer that ques­tion but will also show oth­er ways of com­bin­ing per­cus­sion with electronics.

Three com­po­si­tions cre­at­ed as part of his doc­tor­ate explore this tan­dem in dif­fer­ent ways, show­cas­ing the remark­able pos­si­bil­i­ties offered by the lat­est tech­no­log­i­cal advances. Hash­tag Lab will fill with exper­i­men­tal sounds, unusu­al har­mon­ics and inter­ac­tive visu­als, all over­seen by a sin­gle artist.

Bartłomiej Sutt was born in 1998 in Gdańsk. He began his jour­ney through the world of music at the age of 7, and his great­est pas­sion is per­cus­sion instru­ments. In 2020 he grad­u­at­ed from The Roy­al Dan­ish Acad­e­my of Music in Copen­hagen with the high­est grade for his bach­e­lor’s diplo­ma. He spent his third year of stud­ies in France, study­ing with one of the most out­stand­ing per­cus­sion­ists of our time, Prof. Emmanuel Séjourné, at the Haute École des Arts du Rhin in Stras­bourg. In Octo­ber 2020 he began his mas­ter’s stud­ies at the Fry­deryk Chopin Uni­ver­si­ty of Music in War­saw, which he com­plet­ed with dis­tinc­tion.

Despite his young age he has achieved sig­nif­i­cant artis­tic suc­cess­es, win­ning awards at pres­ti­gious com­pe­ti­tions and per­form­ing along­side dis­tin­guished artists.
