Our September artist in residence is none other than the incredible Søren Kjærgaard!
Søren Kjærgaard’s work as a pianist, composer and improviser encompasses a variety of settings ranging from his trans-Atlantic trio with drummer Andrew Cyrille and bassist Ben Street, to the duo collaboration with Torben Ulrich, the 82 year old legendary Danish tennis player and inter-disciplinary artist. Most of his activities in recent years have been exploring and interweaving different approaches to music and sound, converging elements of improvisation, composition, performativity and practice into one dynamic field of play. This has lead to a manifold of international exchanges, commissions and a growing discography of critically acclaimed albums. Mr Kjærgaard is one of the heaviest players i town, a natural improviser with a unique vision on the piano. we are very very exited to present this great artist each monday in september. since he has been researching solopiano in the last year, mr Kjærgaard will begin each of his residency nights with a solo piece and then be joined by a stellar cast of collaborators!...

kl 22 Henrik Pultz Melbye Trio

We begin the evening with a high class trio lead by cutting edge sax player and hardcore improviser Henrik Pultz Melbye. He has been working steadily for the last 10 years and is known for his work with SVIN and The Hum and as a solo artist. here he presents his smoking trio with the always great Anders Vestergaard and the lovely Casper Rask who plays with a big sound and swings while taking it out!
Claus Poulsen is a danish musician and producer who works with laptop, turntables, synths, electronics, field recordings, amplified objects and other sound sources. His output can sit anywhere within the blurred boundaries between ambient, avantgarde, noise and (rarely) pop. As a solo artist, CP is currently working with a number of concepts: bowing vinyl records, traveller’s recordplayer, bonzai tree and “Children of the Stars” experiments with sampled voices of children. His journey as an artist is very much an on-going process and he prefers to experiment with sound and texture in an improvised fashion, with a goal of gradually honing his craft and covering new and uncharted territory.
