Pierluigi Foschi and Cosimo Fiaschi (URUBORO) met in 2017 in Siena and immediately began playing together, sharing a deep interest in musical improvisation. Over the years, they have collaborated in various ensembles, including Nicolò Faraglia's Smòs Octet (Aut Records, 2019) and the Tabula Rasa Ensemble (Centripeta, 2024), performing in prestigious contexts such as the Micat in Vertice concert series by the Accademia Chigiana and at the Italian Cultural Institute in Berlin. Close Position marks their first project as a duo, premiered at Tempo Reale (TRK Sound Club, October 16, 2024). The live performance involves the use of samples, as the composed balances require multiple timbral layers to be active simultaneously. The closeness in pitch and the mimicry between instruments highlight the psychoacoustic phenomenon of beating: in fact, the auditory system does not allow people to hear two very close frequencies at the same time, but rather perceives first one and then the other, generating actual pulsations that exist only within the perceptual system of the listeners. The live performance therefore offers a subjective and unique experience for each individual, as it depends on the listener's position in space, as well as their focus and sensitivity.
