Sawtooth
Sarah Albu, voice
Matti Pulkki, accordion

Sawtooth is an exciting new chamber music duo exploring connections between folk music, classical music and contemporary repertoire.

With a passion for experimental textures, interdisciplinary collaboration and deep connection to narrative, Sawtooth seeks out obscure song repertoire, adapts chamber pieces written for other instruments and develops new works in collaboration with composers.

Alongside the mission to foster new creations incorporating theatricality and electronics, Sawtooth pursues creative re-imaginings of art song and folk song transcriptions. In addition to researching and presenting eclectic chamber music programs the duo is currently pursuing a commissioning project based around dream logic.

Both Albu and Pulkki are active soloists and collaborators with various ensembles in Canada and internationally. Both are dedicated performers of contemporary music and have commissioned new works that expand the sonic possibilities of their respective instruments. They are versatile performers who work in various musical genres and interdisciplinary settings including video installations, film, theatre, cabaret and contemporary dance.
