Some important events at Jazz Dock this week. On Monday, June 27, first cd of PROJECT Z will be launched. Group started about year ago as trio of guitar player Petr Zelenka, saxophonist & bass clarinettist Marcel Bárta and drummer Daniel Šoltis. Later they invited Rodrigo Parejo, Dutch based Spanish flautist, and their concert at Jazz Dock was recorded for Czech Public Radio. Studio album for Animal Music was recorded in September 2o1o at Studio Svárov and mixed in February 2o11 at studio Sono. Adventurous music collection features mostly Petr Zelenka's compositions and number of collective improvisations.

Helou ~ Ve středu 15. června zahrají na Wakushoppu dvě dua vzešlá z řad vynikajícího improvizačního sexteta IQ+1. Na závěr patrně opět dojde k fúzi. Koná se opět V lese, vstup opět zdarma.

Vystoupí Jana Kneschke (elektrické housle, FX) & Michal Zbořil (modulární analogový syntezátor Korg MS20, FX) plus Petr Vrba (trubky, klarinet, objekty, FX) & Miroslav Posejpal (cello, sampler, FX).

Děkujeme všem, kteří se na Wakushoppu přišli podívat, jakož i účinkujícím, bylo to fešné jaro: a program na "školní rok" 2011 / 2012 se již chystá! (Zájemci o hraní, hlaste se!)

"It’s jazz and the blues; it’s funk and old-school 70s rock; its good, damn good music. Turn it on and turn it up." ~ Michael J. Bultman, Thewaster.com

Kytarista Petr Zelenka, flétnista Rodrigo Parejo, saxofonista Marcel Bárta, kontrabasista Vlado Micenko a bubeník Tomáš Hobzek se sejdou, aby společně prozkoumali zvukový vesmír vyvěrající z přítomného okamžiku. Kromě svých nástrojů si vezmou na pomoc pár kouzelných talismanů, vidliček, hrnců, vrtaček, písklátek, bublifuků, objektů nalezených na smetišti a hraček ze svého dětství. Čeká vás jedinečná performance vynesená na světlo z temnoty zkušeben, kde tito muzikanti doposud tajně holdovali svým skrytým obsesím. V průběhu večera muzikanty vystřídají přátelé a kolegové a provedou vás na cestách po různých kontinentech, pod zem i na jiné planety.

vstupné: zdarma
