Event Details
ECM Records artists Dans Les Arbres are making some of the most engaging, mysterious and beautiful music in the field of improvisation. Nominated for the prestigious Nordic Music Prize in 2015, the idiosyncratic French-Norwegian ensemble combines airy, wooden, metallic sounds, prepared strings and tampered drum heads. The Wire praised their 2017 ECM album Phosphorescence, “One of the finest ECM improv releases – indeed, releases from any label – in recent years”. Since recording their first album in 2006, Dans Les Arbres has performed more than 120 concerts around the globe. Their strange sound world and their fine sense of communication lead to collective playing and spontaneous group-composing in a class of its own. They’ve been joined by guest musicians such as Yumiko Tanaka, Otomo Yoshihide, Jim O´Rourke, Norwegian duo Vilde & Inga and The Norwegian Wind Ensemble.
