Elektroakustische Improvisation im H7 – Club für aktuelle Musik in Hamburg
Drei MusikerInnen aus Frankreich und drei aus Hamburg spielen zusammen am Samstag, den 22. November 2008 um 21 Uhr in der Blinzelbar, Große Bergstraße 156 in Hamburg–Altona. Wird es laut?
Somewhere between abstract minimalist contemporary concrete instrumental improvised music flirting with silence and sometimes energic "noisy" free-jazz like style, GLOTOKOS with Nusch Werchowska (piano, objects), Mathias Pontévia (horizontal drum) et Heddy Boubaker (alto & bass saxophone)play a music without any compromise and where total freedom is the masterword. The trio had been constituted for the first time during a concert at the musical meeting festival ZMZ July 2004. Followed the publication of the first cd Glotosifres and a tour in Spain, Portugal and France. The disk was rightly welcomed as a radical strangeness in the musical landscape of improvised music. Like a raw and violent beauty, this cd is a testimony of an urgency. The work of the trio goes on, calmed, but its unique sound is still present. Mathias Pontevia, with a self made horizontal drum set has got a quasi liquid sound ; The piano, literally invested, inhabited from the inside by Nusch Werchowska ; and Heddy Boubaker, «body-saxophoned» with his projections of blows and saturations. The music is totally free improvised and in the same time like a fusion of masses and grains, so that it's impossible to detect the sources of the sounds. For a proof, the beautiful record: Décalage vers le Rouge, published in 2008, for the petit label editions.
Und die HamburgerInnen sind: Heiner Metzger - Soundtable, Gregory Büttner - Laptop, Birgit Ulher - Trompete.
