Cologne Jazzweek: GLOTZE feat. Pei Ann Yeoh & Elisabeth Coudoux

In the organizer's words:

Musique concrète is a compositional technique that was developed in France in the mid-20th century and involves composing with sounds that have been recorded and stored on sound carriers. With Jazz concrète, the quartet Glotze, with the two string players Pei Ann Yeoh (violin) and Elisabeth Coudoux (cello) as guests, takes up the idea of this technique and transforms it into an idiosyncratic jazz idiom. The musicians confidently enter a still unknown territory of European free jazz of the 1970s, New York NoWave of the early 1980s and the so-called "other bands" of the late GDR before 1990, such as Tom Terror & Das Beil or Der Expander des Fortschritts. The energy level of the Glotze music is enormous, virtuosity does not mean technical execution here, the songs cover a wide field between discipline and deconstruction. The musicians call their result conceptual improvisation, which only at first glance reads contradictorily as a paradox.
