CZECH RADIO JAZZ FESTIVAL 2022

CZECH RADIO JAZZ FESTIVAL 2022

Thursday 17/11/2022 from 19:00

We are organizing a one-day festival in cooperation with Czech Radio that will be broadcast within the European radio network EBU.

Trio Grande 2.0 (UK/IL/USA) – is a collaborative multi-national trio with UK saxophonist Will Vinson, Israeli guitarist Gilad Hekselman and US drummer Nate Wood. In its first incarnation, the band released an eponymous debut to an avalanche of critical acclaim. Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it was never able to perform in front of an audience. The new version of the trio is gearing up for a busy tour in fall 2022, and in later in the year will go into the studio to record a new album, which, like the first record, will include music from all the members of the band. Gilad Hekselman – g; Will Vinson – sax, keys; Nate Wood – dr,b.

Enemy (UK/SE) – Kit Downes joins forces with long-time collaborators Petter Eldh on bass and James Maddren on drums for a carefully assorted piano trio programme that treads gentle lyricism and bold creative outbursts in equal measures. Downes, whose prior ECM offering Dreamlife of Debris was termed a “work of otherworldly beauty” by BBC Music Magazine, carves out some of his most compendious pieces to date on Vermillion. Replete with subtle twists and turns, the trio offers its idiosyncratic take on the piano trio format, producing unexpected harmonic alterations and animate rhythmic flashes as they flesh out distinct musical forms.

S.V.A. Trio – The S.V.A. Trio started playing in March 2020 – a time when all public music events were stopped by the pandemic. However, this time of uncertainty and emptiness only served to accelerate the completion of new projects, such as the S.V.A. Trio – a formation of three renowned musicians with multi-genre experience who decided to focus on their own music. Music which would reflect our common musical influences and become a reaction to living in a metropolis. They call this style “urban fusion”. This time the S.V.A. Trio will join renowned musicians Matěj Ptaszek on harmonica and Miloš Dvořáček on drums. Alexey Aslamas – violin; Vladan Malinjak – viola; Šimon Marek – cello.
