Ø / Andrea Bazzicalupo / Copenhagen Winter Jazz

Concerto del chitarrista italiano Andrea Bazzicalupo insiame a  musicisti internazionali a Christianshavns Beboerhus in occasione del festival Copenhagen Winter Jazz.

A space traversed by ideas in movement.
Complex timbres, micro detailed structures, blend of acoustic and artificial sounds, fragmented
elements, strong physical approach and gestures, multi layers interweaving…and a rich dose
of intensity thrown into the mix.
Improvisation is the key method that feeds the instant creation and the constructive processing.
Exploring multi-idiomatic musical environments, the result is a unique stream of sound, frozen like a
fluorescent sculpture.

Ø is an international project joining musicians from Denmark, Germany and Italy.
The trio works with advanced techniques and prepared instruments in a free sonic landscape that unfolds spontaneously
and fluidly, focusing on textural sounds and explosive dissonances. Each has cultivated original approaches to their
instruments and strives for a transcendent music that is at once abstract and precise.
Each performance is unique – in time and space.

Peter Ole and Jonathan joined forces as a duo almost a year ago and cultivate encounters with international guests, playing with Portuguese saxophonist José Lencastre this summer and with Damir Kafka from Croatia during the fall break.
In February, they will be joined by Czech saxophonist Radim Hanousek. Radim and Jonathan played together in the Czech Republic on May 23.

The trio Hanousek, Aardestrup, Jørgensen does not play jazz as you know it, yet there are roots that are clearly heard when the acoustic instruments meet in curious exploration of sonic universes. The 3 experienced improvisers easily find new areas to explore and naturally exchange ideas, rhythms and soundscapes.
It’s free improvised music of a high international standard.
