Olie Brice Quartet represents the powerful London tradition of avant-garde jazz from the 60s. They approach this tradition with a great deal of depth and expressivity. The second part of the evening will belong to German musicians led by saxophone virtuosi Ingrid Laubrock and Frank Gratkowski. The ensemble combines inventive compositions and unrestrained collective improvisation.
Olie Brice Quartet
The Olie Brice Quartet is a new ensemble led by British double bassist, composer, and improviser Olie Brice, one of the leading figures on the contemporary British improvisation scene. He has invited three close collaborators to join the quartet: saxophonist Rachel Musson, pianist Alexander Hawkins, and drummer Will Glaser. Their music is rooted in original compositions but leaves ample room for free improvisation, spontaneous dialogue, and the ever-changing energy of the moment. Their debut album, All It Was, captures the band’s music as it moves between fragility, urgency, and an open free-jazz expression.
In Cahoots feat. Ingrid Laubrock
Projekt In Cahoots navazuje na kvarteto Gratkowski / Zoubek / Landfermann / Mahnig, které od roku 2016 rozvíjelo volně improvizovanou hudbu bez předem daných omezení. Po vydání debutového alba Torbid Dayligtht se sestava v roce 2023 přejmenovala a začala pracovat s kompozicemi Franka Gratkowského — stále však s velkým prostorem pro otevřenou, tvůrčí improvizaci. Vedle kvartetní podoby existuje In Cahoots také jako kvintet, v němž kapelu doplňuje saxofonistka Ingrid Laubrock na tenorový a sopránový saxofon. Tato rozšířená sestava měla premiéru v roce 2023 v Darmstadtu.
