this woman is a genius. her level of knowledge of her musical instrument is highly advanced. the performance was really beautiful.
I do agree
I'm so glad that people who think like her exist
To all the haters this is one of many styles of music, there is demand for this kind of composition, a branch of electronic music without percussions. Colin Benders uses this plus percussions.
Pure music.
Pure sounds.
Pure feeling.
Pure love.
Pure..
I come back to this every few months to remind myself why I got into modular in the first place, truly amazing set
Yeah, Cat is highly inspiring to me as well. Her approach takes much more discipline than meets the...ear.
Goosebumps through the whole session. This is my favorite real-time synth set nowadays. She is a genius.
She certainly stands out to me. She's taking us on a journey like any great music should.
Seeing her performances and workshop at Moogfest this year was one of the most life-changing musical experiences of my life.
I was there listening to her performance, I cried hearing it.. that was something extraordinary. I strongly advise seeing her live if you have a chance. Wonderful artist and a very humble person.
How lucky man you are to have hear this fabulous performance in a live concert !
Same, her first album is really deep. Seen her live at Funkhaus in Berlin and I cried as well.
Just made me cry a little bit and I'm only watching it on TH-cam. Her talent and creativity in coaxing emotion from bleepy machines is beyond belief.
Any other 🐑💨🧔🏻♂️ cry? I didn’t. It was nice though.
@@SamplingPercussionI’m legitimately curious what 🐑💨 is supposed to signify
17:23 this causes consciousness to fracture

happy she played my 3 favourite tracks:D
the last one is called "Fantas"
Fantas is incredible! Larger than life.
26:50 is TCCTF, 39:30 is unreleased afaik
This is the purest art of electronic music.
she has mad talent. Her newest LP brought me here. Incredible
This minimalist music, made me new connections of neurons in my brain
She is so patient with the development of the groove /pattern and expanded it in a way that bands like early Tangerine Dream or similar electro pioneers have. So refreshing. And beautiful. Peace Christo
klaus schulze?
@@qishmish ... It has a lot more to do with minimalist composer Steve Reich than the German space/Kosmische/New Age/ambient (Schulze, Tangerine Dream, Ash Rah, Popol Vuh). Listen to works like Music for 18 Musicians and Tehillim by Reich, you'll hear similar rhythmic structures and emotional content.
@@emdotambient now when you say that, i agree. p.s. always loved marimba/xylo/gamelan version of Music for 18.
J ai adoré tangerine dream mais à 60 ans passés je trouve les compositions de Caterina 10 fois plus exaltantes
More innovative and less frightening i do appréciate her composition and the Buchla Easel What a fabulous machine
The most interesting and inspiring musician working today. I know it’s a bold claim, but I stand by it. Her music moves me in ways I didn’t think possible.
This was more moving than I thought it would be. Emotional melodic lines, excellent timing for evolution, undulating between calm and intense....a mastery of her craft. I love it when she starts using the glides. She got this.
shes amazing
You're completely right!!!
A very good description of the movement of the performance.
@@ptadisbander7959 Thanks 😃
the 41 minute mark... The 41 minute mark.. OMG.. Eno meets Tangerine Dream meets Plastikman. GENIUS

As a Philip Glass fan, I love repetition, really enjoyed this.
... and very Klaus Schulze, especially the initial sequence.
Letˋs say: evolving repetitions...
Same here, though this is a lot more like Steve Reich's works than Glass's.
Philip Glass est devenu vraiment chiant et mégalo
J adore Caterina
Glass recommendations??
I just shut my eyes and the music took me on a journey. Phenomenal.
"I think we should stop talking and let you play..." Love it, I really like this interviewer, he seems so respectful to the musicians and his questions are quite poignant, so much so it's like he hears what I am wondering and asks the question, well done.
:edit after listening to this, well done Caterina, gorgeous original exploration. I also agree with a lot of your philosophies, i came to them myself in my own way obviously, glad there are others out there, and better that people will actually listen to at least one of us :)
Votre point de vue est lui aussi très inspirant et riche de réflexion
I've been waffling on the Verbos HO for awhile, and I think this video just tipped me over the edge. Amazing.
totally inspirational in every way - both the interview and the performance. the world needed caterina barbieri
what a joy she is, everything she touches is gold. Early version of Fantas at 41 minutes in, so amazing this is a song of a lifetime for me.
Of a lifetime indeed.
Really stunning music! Beautifully composed and performed! Thank you thank you thank you!
My favorite new modular synth artist. Deep music!
omg the sounds are so rich and pure
There is such a primal truth to your music. makes me cry every single time. thank you!
When the huge reverb comes in around the 40:00 mark. Soooooo good.
what about the one at 24:00
Stunning performance. Easily in the top 5 modular "live" performances I've seen, and probably the most interesting and fascinating due to its radical sound design while maintaining such melodic beauty. Simply breathtaking.
Simply excellent, this Beautifull woman crates minimal sounds that is so simple but yet so rich and contemplative. Being a follower of Steve Roach minimal sounds in some way I felt a relation between these sounds and his. I will follow this artist for sure 👌
Okay, I get it's not for everyone but that's okay. I thoroughly appreciated the thought process behind her work and the work itself is excellent
Oh wow, finally got a min to get into this, half way through I knew I would be listening again as soon as it was over. I could listen to the ending alone for 20min. Nicely done Caterina!
It takes a master to control this box in such a manner. Thats really a great performance!
This the most emotional, pure, narrative, mature and moving performance I have ever seen. I'm left speechless.
I do agree
Awesome, lush soundscapes! Great!
And I forgot the most importiant... it is deeply emotional.
Just beautiful, soul changing music.
Very gifted. She extends herself as one with her instrument. Wonderful....
What? People finding that boring? Don't get any emotion? What? I get crazy goosebumps each time. Give it a try at 41:30... totally crazy. Somehow I have this feeling, that I and the other "fans" can be lucky to understand and feel this intensity of the music here.
Couldn't agree more! To me, her music is deeply emotional.
This is so crazy amazing. The first really feels like waking up to a new sunny day where everything is possible.
Fantas (@41:01 min) was amazing 5 years ago and is amazing today. Had a pleasure seeing her at Mutek in 2022 and it was mind-blowing.
Brilliant. What a journey! Maybe even better than the album. She has some very interesting things to say too. Subtraction, got it. And Eastern vs Western. I can tell I'll be thinking about this stuff for a while. Grazie, Caterina
The fantas song gave chills down my spine 😍🥰😘
Oh yeah. I did not expect that.
So nicely done
The music she creates is so artistic and beautiful, It brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful performance those machines can make extraordinary sounds its out of this world!
Lady modular in her quest for giving musicality to modular synths, she's the new Suzanne Ciani
You are perfectluy right
Astonishing. Moved to tears.
I was really touched.
Caterinas music is fantastic. Been a big fan for some years now.
She's brilliant.
Great sound design, so vivid and lively.
That final was so unexpected and amazing
Such a fantastic set, from such a talented musician.....
Bravo! What a performance
Five years later, is still brilliant. Well thought through. 🤍
Indeed mesmerizing. Glad to see talented young people who explore new dimensions and possibilites for the electronic music.
my soul just left my body
Beautiful performance .
the music is absolutely beautiful.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME AND 😍🤩🤩🤩
She’s a goddess, making the music of her people.
Interesting interview and very cool sounds in the live set!!!!
that's transformative art, really great
Amazing! Loved the discussion, and then this superb performance with the most incredible live sound. I especially like the way 'fantas' builds up to its crazy climax, and the epic moment when she "pulls the plug" at 51:22 :-D.
Sooooo cool peformance, like it a lot.
Cool vid guys ! keep on doing this
Celestial❤️
Interesting concept and beautifully realized!
I wrote about her new album yesterday. I like her very much.
The progression was brilliant the whole this was but hearing every thing come in at a nice pace
C'est une magnifique prestation !
Damn that was a great performance!
Carbon based lifeforms kinda very ambient I really like it
Love this. Spell the title in script with the patch cables, just my idea. I would love being in the room sometime. Cheers.
Fantastic performance !!!
Love that music, just gorgeous.
42:27 amazing
I can't believe it!You are a lucky woman,nice work.
This is a whole new show to my point of observation. SUCH discussion and on a really ‘big-brained’ level. I want to get a better idea of just what she was saying, maybe if there could be a separate discussion track that would simultaneously explain the performance while it’s playing!?! She’s got to have video game nerds drooling all over her mains leads to the point it would be taboo even to anthropologists! This is the sound I always wanted to make on my gear. I used my old Akai S-20 to do the whole ‘multi-timbral’ stuff way back and I was really feeling a sense of achievement. This takes me to the days of these great ambient sets before the shops separated the music into classifications and ‘genres’. Really takes the whole ‘Global’ sense of anything, puts a unique touch of DNA for proper classification, then add some mutations. Mix it in like a chameleon them strips the DNA again to bring it full circle, and all in a multitude of ways and in uncountable instances.
Just Amaizing!
ti amo
We, the good people of Know How Bergen loves this song ;-)
Another amazing performance by a woman in this setting. She is really electro roots driven too! Amazing and beautiful performance. Peace Christo 👽👽🎶🎶🐕🐕
Now these are some sound waves I can groove too. Synths for the win!
Amazing deep sound!!!
brilliant
beautiful performance, roll on Mutek Montreal!
At the beginning i thought wtf is this but then after a while WOW!!!
PS: Especially the part beginning at 30:00. Absolutely love that tune, such a masterpiece.
This is fantastic!!!!!!!
Despite my best efforts, I can't say I like this kind of music. Maybe, I'm too "old stylish" to understand it, despite how hard I try. Simply, this gives me no emotion at all. But I do like the energy that animates this girl, and the strength of her belief in her way of composing and sculpt sound.
Fabio Prina I respect your opinion especially that you tried to understand but you still don’t get it . My uncle LOVES electronic music especially house but whenever I play anything similar to this, it just doesn’t click with him , maybe it’s the repetitiveness of the music idk . But minimalist electronic music speaks to me on so many levels .
No emotion at all? 😱
Caterina orgoglio italiano ♥
*orgoglio bolognese
Well done! Really enjoyed that.
at around 41:50 it starts to sound like SOPHIE? Or does SOPHIE sound like her? Amazing stuff regardless, just real high quality beauty.
This was amazing!
I wonder what sonic worlds a duo,of her and Robert Fripp would be like.
beautiful modular
Glad to see that the buchla is still kicking creative ass!
Amazing “emergent music” !!!
I’m so inspired. This is the future language of music.
Vraiment impresionnant!
Great performance. I especially loved the sequences. This may not be everyone's cup of tea but it's no reason to beat someone's work because of that , But i guess it's true what dirty harry said opinions are like a--holes everyones got one.
Everyone's got one, and they all stink!
Beautiful music and smock
