Julia Biłat – Cello
Zuza Jasinska – Voice
Keisuke Matsuno – Guitar, Electronics
Incense burning: Eucalyptus, Dittany
Experience an evening that combines two distinct musical worlds in a double set.
Berlin-based cellist, composer, and improviser Julia Biłat expands the solo cello format with performance art, creating intimate structures shaped by body, voice, and spatial awareness. Her work moves between improvisation, composition, and experimental performance, forming a vivid and introspective soundscape.
Zuza Jasinska & Keisuke Matsuno explore a dialogue of voice and guitar: Zuza’s folk-pop warmth, jazz inflection, and improvisational openness meets Keisuke’s detailed, textural guitar and electronics. Together they create a sound that is at once delicate, bold, and deeply responsive.
A curated incense blend accompanies the performance: fresh, clarifying Eucalyptus and the rare, traditionally purifying Dittany (Burning Bush). The botanical smoke deepens the sensory atmosphere. Note: the incense may be irritating for people with respiratory sensitivities.

Eucalyptus
Dried eucalyptus leaves emit a fresh, camphor-like, invigorating scent. Traditionally regarded as clarifying and purifying, the smoke is associated with clear breathing, mental focus, and energetic cleansing. Because of its intensity, only small amounts should be burned; not recommended for people with asthma or small children.
Dittany (Burning Bush)
A rare and protected plant once used in traditional smudging practices. Its aroma is spicy-bitter with citrus and camphor notes. Dittany has long been considered purifying, protective, and mentally sharpening, used historically to bless spaces and ward off negative influences.
