HADAR NOIBERG & OLIVIA TRUMMER
„The Hawk“

Hadar Noiberg: flutes, effects
Olivia Trummer: piano, vocals

Flutist Hadar Noiberg and pianist Olivia Trummer met almost accidentally while Hadar spent some
time in Berlin. Their personal and musical connection was immediate, even though quite unexpected. They both share a deep appreciation for Classical music and jazz which they grew up on while also being influenced by various Latin styles in their compositions and improvisations.
Being strong bandleaders in their own right, Hadar and Olivia bring a stunning combination of
strength and tenderness into their music. With their unified and strong sound as a duo they are
blending into one voice at times, as if flute and piano were extensions of each other. Adding
Olivia’s vocals and Hadar’s use of effects and loops expands their tonal color palette.

In November 2019 the duo releases their first common album, „The Hawk“. It mainly contains
their original compositions as well as an arrangement of the Israeli folksong „Be-it Ha’arava“ and
a new interpretation of George Harrison’s „Here comes the sun“.
The genesis of the album - just like the music itself - has a magical lightness to it: An encounter
gave rise to a project, a live recorded concert gave birth to an album. A spontaneous and flowing
process which made perfect sense. The organic nature of this album mirrors the development of a
beautiful friendship and the ability to hold space for one another musically and personally. The
duo creates passionate, mysterious and lyrical music and takes the listener on a voyage into their
own fantastical world.
