EMAJAMAA TRIO

In the organizer's words:

In these original compositions, the sounds of cello, handpan and drums interweave to create music that makes dreams dance.

Emajamaa stands for music that makes dreams dance. With Fernando Lyra on handpans, rav drum and sansula, Tabea Hörsch on cello and Christian Maurer on prepared percussion, this unusual line-up explores new technical and tonal possibilities and combines them with influences from jazz and folk to create their very own language. In their original compositions, the sounds of cello, handpan and drums interweave to create a rousing performance that takes the audience on a journey through inner landscapes, sometimes dreamy, sometimes dance-like.

NIMM PLATZ am Neumarkt is a joint project of Cologne's cultural administration and the independent cultural scene, with contributions from the University of Music and Dance (HfMT) and the Academy of Media Arts (KHM).
