jazzexzess: A diverse program this June

Dear friends and music lovers,

After a dynamic start to the season featuring Horse Lords and Amirtha Kidambi’s Elder Ones in April, we are happy to unveil our upcoming concerts for this summer.  This June, prepare for an especially diverse program across House of Music and Kantine am Berghain.  

jazzexzess w/ FALLEN CROONER & MALSTROM

FALLEN CROONER 

Laura Totenhagen – vocals
Pascal Klewer – trumpet
Shannon Barnett – trombone
Sofía Salvo – baritone sax
Robert Lucaciu – double bass
Marius Wankel – drums

Double bassist and composer Robert Lucaciu’s “Fallen Crooner” seeks to untangle his own (cis) male self-image. In a collaboration with musicians Laura Totenhagen, Pascal Klewer, Shannon Barnett, Sofía Salvo and Marius Wankel, the work opens up a pleasurable discourse about gender roles.

MALSTROM

Florian Walter – saxophone
Axel Zajac – guitar
Jo Beyer – drums

Hailing from Germany and Switzerland, powerhouse trio Malstrom harnesses influences from progressive rock, nu metal, and electronic music to produce their full and sometimes brutal sound façade. 

Limited pre sale ticket: 10,00€ + booking fee
Regular pre sale ticket: 15,00€ + booking fee

jazzexzess w/ NEBBIA – PARKINS + TAU

NEBBIA – PARKINS

Camila Nebbia – saxophone, electronics, visuals
Andrea Parkins – accordion, objets, electronics 

Andrea Parkins is an electroacoustic musician, composer, and sound artist who engages interactively with electronics as a compositional and performative process. Camila Nebbia is a saxophone player, composer, improviser, and visual artist. In their music, the two multidisciplinary artists explore the multi-layered landscapes that emerge at the intersection of acoustic and electronic instruments. Their dynamic collaboration focused on free improvised music gives rise to ever-evolving soundscapes.

TAU (Record-Release)

Philipp Gropper – tenor + sopran sax
Philip Zoubek – synthesizer
Felix Henkelhausen – electronics, bass
Ludwig Wandinger – electronics
Moritz Baumgärtner – drums

Musically, TAU oscillates between free jazz and fusion with beat-heavy hip-hopelements and some moments reminiscent of lavishly produced soundtracks. In a collective process of composition, improvisation, and arrangement, the five Berlin and Cologne based musicians find a distinct vocabulary for their own sonic language. The result is a sound pulsing with density – it’s at once futuristic, virtuosic, and courageous. 

Limited pre sale ticket: 10,00€ + booking fee.
Regular pre sale ticket: 15,00€ + booking fee

jazzexzess w/ LūX & OS BARBAPAPAS

LūX

Carolin Schnabel – vocals, electronics, noise
Jan Lukas Roßmüller – synthesizer
Elias Weber – bass
Henry Hahnfeldt – drums, electronics

Blending free improvisation and groove, LūX create sonic environments bursting with both feminist and political meditations. Their interplay between text fragments, analog, and synthetic instrumentalization creates a world that is at once bizarre, delicate, and warm. Sometimes puristic, sometimes alienated, LūX’s output boasts a vast and unexpected spectrum of sound.

OS BARBAPAPAS

Barbara Mucciollo – drums
Fernando Lima – percussion 
Rubens da Selva – electric guitar 
Tomás Oliveira – glass harp
Fernanda Horvath – bass

São Paulo-based quartet Os Barbapapas trapeze the vast richness of Brazilian musical heritage and beyond. Naming themselves after a cult French cartoon family from the 70s, the collective’s members bring varied musical backgrounds to the forefront, some have travelled to Morocco to master Gnawa, others played in circuses, or were born in the heartland of samba. This multiplicity of influences informs the complex, yet breezy instrumentals heard on their latest album “Enigma” out on Staatsakt / Fun In The Church. The otherworldly record, as put by radioeins, is ‘soothing in these times ofmadness’. 

Limited pre sale ticket: 10,00€ + booking fee
Regular pre sale ticket: 15,00€ + booking fee.
