Three sets of unprecedented, unrepeatable, and unmissable meetings between international innovators, cross-Canada all-stars, and local lights.
Trumpeter Feven Kidane is one of the freshest voices in jazz and experimental music. The creative firebrand will be performing in intergenerational exchange with guitarist Tony Wilson, an almost mystical centre point of the genre-resistant West Coast improv and avant-composition scenes for more than three decades.
Turkish-born, US-based violinist Eylem Basaldi (Snarky Puppy, Banda Magda) meets Vancouver-based guitarist and indefatigable collaborator Gordon Grdina (Jim Black, Mats Gustafsson, Mark Helias, Matthew Shipp) and extended technique master bassist Torsten Müller in a trio that will stretch the limits of what can be coaxed out of wood and wires.
Clarinetist François Houle (Benoît Delbecq), UK pianist Alexander Hawkins (Louis Moholo-Moholo, Wadada Leo Smith), and American drummer Kate Gentile (Jon Irabagon, Mat Maneri) are endlessly generous improvisers whose vocabularies touch on chamber jazz, modern composition, and stratospheric melodicism.
