    RELEASE day - CLOUDS

    Out on all streaming platforms

    https://hypeddit.com/martinfabriciusrandipontoppidan/clouds

    Revered vocalist Randi Pontoppidan and leading
    vibraphonist Martin Fabricius proudly present the
    culmination of a blossoming musical relationship of the
    past eight years. Blending acoustic and electronic
    timbres, free improvisation and ethereal composition,
    their otherworldly universe ‘Clouds’ is set to release on
    the 12th of April.
    The duo first met in 2016, at Jazz Denmark’s Summer
    Session – a jazz camp for professionals, led by some of
    the world’s most renowned musicians, including
    Jamaladeen Tacuma – Ornette Coleman’s Prime Time
    bassist.
    A mere two hours before Tacuma was set to depart for
    the airport, he gathered a select group of session
    attendees to record an improvised album – later titled
    ‘The Legend of the Pipe and Sweater’. Taken aback and
    inspired by his spontaneity, Fabricius and Pontoppidan
    incorporated this mindset into their practice, taking
    every opportunity to play together over the years to come.
    A collection of eleven varied pieces, the duo’s creative process behind ‘Clouds’ took on a wide array of
    shapes. The record contains several older compositions tried and tested through extensive live
    performances, free improvisations done in the spur of the moment, a 12 tone row composition
    accompanied by improvisations in the style of Schoenberg, as well as multi-tracked produced
    compositions enhanced via overdubs and layering.
    Martin Fabricius is a former student of Gary Burton and is schooled in the pianistic 4-mallet approach of
    playing the vibraphone. Building on Burton’s legacy, Martin is considered a leading exponent of a new
    generation of vibraphone players, exploring the use of electronics, new repertoire and inventing new
    playing techniques in the quest of expanding the expressive possibilities of his instrument.
    Randi Pontoppidan is an internationally acclaimed artist, improviser and composer, working with free
    improvisation, jazz, performance art, electroacoustic composition and sound poetry. Known for her
    extended vocal techniques, poetic sensibility and live electronics, she has been likened to Diamanda
    Galás, Joan La Barbara and Maja S. K. Ratkje. Exploring the outer limits and deepest secrets of the
    human voice, Pontoppidan has received numerous award nominations over the years including the
    Steppeulven award for best vocalist in Denmark in 2020.
    ‘Clouds’ was produced and mixed using Dolby Atmos spatial audio and will be available as such on
    Apple Music, Tidal, and Amazon Music.

    Concert with Paper Trio + stories by Cecilia Vanman

    17:00

    Strandingsmuseum St. George
    Vesterhavsgade 1E, Thorsminde
    6990 Ulfborg

     

    FRA STILETTER TIL SVØMMEFØDDER
    Dykkerhistorier (unge og voksne)
    Fortæller: Cecilie Vanman, dykker og havpattedyrsbiolog, De Kvindelige Eventyreres Klub.
    Musikere: Randi Pontoppidan – Vokal og elektronik, Greg Cohen – Kontrabas, Thomas Agergaard –
    Saxofoner og fløjte

    Paper Trio består af musikerne Randi Pontoppidan, Greg Cohen og Thomas Agergaard. De tre improvisations veteraner begyndte at spille sammen i 2021 og udkommer denne sommer med deres første album: HIPPO ROAD. Et album, der morfer mellem stilarter, fra jazz til ny klassisk musik og viser deres enestående samspil, nysgerrighed og evne til at fascinere. 

    Inspirationen er hentet fra dyreriget, svamperiget, planteriget, mineralriget, de har lyttet til vinde, oceanerne, fulgt skyernes vandring, iagttaget stjernerne på himmelrummet. Pontoppidan, Cohen og Agergaard møder tonerne og rytmernes univers uden forudgående dagsordner andet end at smelte sammen i musikkens uendeligt fine klang verden, hvor selv den mindste krusning i tonerne absorberes og navigeres efter.

    Hver eneste koncert er en unik oplevelse, hvor publikum drages med ind i Paper Trios skulpturelle og eventyrlige lyduniverser.
