NYANGA

Harp & Hang duo

The word Nyanga means Moon in Xhosa language (South-Africa) It evokes a part of the Universe hidden from the senses. In the shadow of the night, the Moon, daughter of the Earth, weaves magnetic relationships with living beings. The timbral interweaving between the harp and the hang creates a combination of chiaroscuro sounds; it tells of Celtic, Mediterranean and tribal lands, of futuristic scenarios and dreamlike tales. The rhythmic and incisive pulsation marks the time leaving room for a melodic and emotional poetry. The instruments dialogue in a variety of harmonic sounds and create a fertile ground for meditative, relaxing and creative states.

Harp & Hang DUO, founded by the two artists Marianne Gubri and Paolo Borghi, offers an unprecedented combination of suggestive sounds between the harp, a classic instrument with a long history
  musical  and the hang, a very modern percussion of Swiss origin.  The original compositions of the duo Harp & Hang find their inspiration in the repertoire of ancient, Celtic, tribal and ethnic music, but also in the minimalist and modern style.

They have played all over Italy, in France, Brazil, Dubai and the United States. In 2018 they will again be guests of the Wonder Festival in the United States and Ireland.
