“Sound and Lecture – Improvisation in Dialogue”

N° 14: INTERNATIONAL SYMBIOSIS – ARTISTIC RESEARCH

Concert, lectures and talk

Christoph Baumann (CH) – piano | Carl Bergstrøm-Nielsen (DK) – various instruments | Alan Bern (US/DE) – piano | Alessandro Bertinetto (IT) – philosophy | Helmut Bieler-Wendt – violin | Corinna Eikmeier – cello | Jean-Charles François (FR) – percussion, writings | Reinhard Gagel – Minimoog, moderation | Thomas Gerwin – electronics | Nicola Hein – guitar, electronics | Carl Ludwig Hübsch – tuba | Christoph Irmer – violin | Mathias Maschat – piano | Maria Reich – violin | Simon Rose (GB/DE) – baritone saxophone | Wolfgang Schliemann – percussion | Franziska Schroeder (DE/GB) – saxophone | Matthias Schwabe – flute, viola | Paul Stapleton (GB) – electronics | Sabine Vogel – flutes | Christopher A. Williams (US/DE) – double bass

In this symbiotic concert, everyone feeds off everyone else, lives musically from each other, supports, contrasts, interferes and cooperates. Texts and spontaneous conversations form a symbiosis between sound and spirit. It is about the infection by the wild moment and its anamnesis through artistic research. Eighteen musicians from different countries play host and symbiont with ad hoc improvisation art in various ensemble formations. This event is also the opening concert for the public symposium Current Research on Improvisation, which will take place on the following two days from February 1 – 2, 2020 at the exploratorium berlin.

Cleaning Each Other

Rieko Okuda - Piano

https://youtu.be/O6FIqbg7CZ4

What a kaleidoscope does to light, Cleaning Each Other does to sound. Harmonics, rhythm and ambiences get broken up and then put together in myriad new ways, creating constantly new facets of music.

This trio sounds bizarre, yet completely natural, embracing both the order and the chaos of life.

Kritiker und Fans gleichermaßen begrüßen die Pianistin und Komponistin Satoko Fujii als eine der originellsten Stimmen im Jazz von heute. Sie ist "eine virtuose Klavierimprovisatorin, eine Originalkomponistin und eine Bandleaderin, die die besten Mitarbeiter hat", sagt John Fordham in The Guardian. Satoko Fujii und die in Berlin wohnende vielseitige Vibraphonistin Taiko Saito spielen seit 2017 im Quintett „Puzzle“ mit der percussiven Tänzerin Mizuki Wildenhan, Natsuki Tamura(tp) und Tobias Schirmer(cl). Im letzten Sommer gründeten sie ihr Duo“futari“, um neue Sounds mit frischen Ideen zu produzieren. Sie tourten durch Japan und begeisterten das Publikum.
Das Duo „futari“ wird erstmal in Berlin seine Kompositionen und Improvisationen präsentieren.
