OUT NOW "Aeminium Sonorum" on Cylinder Recordings, the third album by the exploratory duo Tabula Sonorum, featuring Bart van Dongen on piano and Gonçalo Almeida on double bass. Following their previous release, Sub Aere, in which the piano was replaced by a pipe organ, this new work returns to the acoustic intimacy of the piano/double bass duo, pushing it further through extensive preparations and extended techniques.
Recorded over three days (April 10–12, 2023) during an artistic residency at Salão Brasil in Coimbra, Portugal, the album captures a process of focused, real-time experimentation.

TABULA SONORUM ORGANUM
Bart van Dongen – Organ
Gonçalo Almeida –Double bass

Tabula Sonorum is a duet by Dutch pianist and composer Bart van Dongen and Portuguese double bassist Gonçalo Almeida, where the exploration of improvised music with a strong minimalist influence pushes the boundaries of traditional piano and double bass playing. The musicians delve into a variety of preparations, experimenting with unconventional techniques to create a unique and diverse range of sounds.

For this particular recording they are presented as Tabula Sonorum Organum, where the piano is replaced by a church organ, creating a unique and powerful musical experience.

The deep, resonant tones of the double bass blend beautifully with the rich and majestic sound of the church organ, creating a sense of grandeur and depth, adding a dramatic and spiritual element to the music towards meditative minimalism.
