ALICE is proud to close our Vinterjazz programme with the stunning vocalist and explorer of futurist folk music, Lyra Pramuk. Her album โFountainโ from 2020 was quite a sensation that received wide critical acclaim. In a โBest New Musicโ review, Pitchfork wrote: โPramukโs debut album generously looks inward to illuminate the multiplicity of the self. Fountain is too rich in scope and meaning to be reduced to just a salve, but thereโs no doubt itโs an oh-so-timely reminder that the body is a site of infinite possibility.โ
โFountainโ plays with the perception of music, rhythms, speech, body, and the relation between technology and humanity, exploring a post-human, non-binary understanding of life and the fragile ecosystems it depends on. Mixing classical vocalism, pop sensibilities, performance practices and contemporary club culture with the sense of storytelling and community building from folk music, Pramuk is a deeply original voice on the contemporary music scene. She recently released the album โDeltaโ - a sequel that presents various collaborations exploring the material from โFountainโ in new contexts. Here she enters into a dialogue with artists such as Ben Frost, Caterina Barbieri and Gabber Modus Operandi. ...

Donโt miss the chance to experience Lyra Pramuk live in the beautiful surroundings of Musikhuset Kรธbenhavn.
Adam Christensen
The Danish multifaceted artist Adam Christensen works with video and textiles as well as poetry and music. Opening for Lyra Pramuk, Christensen will perform and play with his harmonica. Those who were lucky to see the concert at Badesรธen Festival last year will know that they can be quite intense, as Christensen operates with contradictions such as intensity and faint, man and women, performance and person. Think Baby Dee with less cabaret but more deep felt emotions.
Den enestรฅende musiker og performer Lyra Pramuk runder ALICEs Vinterjazz-program af med sin ekspressive vokal og sin posthumane folkemusik. Den danske multikunstner Adam Christensen รฅbner aftenen.
Koncerten finder sted i Musikhuset Kรธbenhavn pรฅ Vesterbro.
Futuristisk folkemusik er Lyra Pramuks musik blevet kaldt. Med stemmen som materiale og med et musikalsk univers, der befinder sig i et grรฆnseland mellem klassisk musik, club-kultur, pop og performancekunst skaber hun en undersรธgelse af kroppens rum i et post-humant landskab og giver samtidig stemme til non-binรฆre identiteter.
Hendes debutalbum, โFountainโ fra 2020 hรธstede fortjente kritikerroser for dets visionรฆre lydunivers - pรฅ รฉn gang intimt, fortroligt og storslรฅet. Albummet var bl.a. Best New Music pรฅ Pitchfork, der skrev:
โPramukโs debut album generously looks inward to illuminate the multiplicity of the self. Fountain is too rich in scope and meaning to be reduced to just a salve, but thereโs no doubt itโs an oh-so-timely reminder that the body is a site of infinite possibility.โ
Selv relaterer Pramuk, der ogsรฅ arbejder med bรฅde poesi, performancekunst og mode, sin musik til folkemusikkens tradition for historiefortรฆlling og dens tradition for at skabe en fรธlelse af fรฆllesskab - et fรฆllesskab, som har et helende potentiale. Og netop musikkens helende fรฆllesskab er et vรฆsentligt udgangspunkt for Pramuk.
Ralf Christensen fra Information har sammenlignet hendes ekspressive stemme med ANOHNI og Lisa Gerrard og skrevet om albummet:
โFountain er et polyfonisk, queer, transhumant lydbillede af, hvor smukt kroppen kan oplรธses, forstรฆrkes, forvrides, muteres, mutileres i teknologiens ocean. Hvordan kroppen kan afgive en musik, der bรฅde trรฆkker pรฅ minimalistisk komposition, folkemusik, pop og electronica.โ
Pramuk stammer fra USA, men er bosat i Berlin. Hun har haft residencies pรฅ bl.a. Open Port Club Residency i Tokyo og legendariske EMS i Stockholm. Hun er aktuel med albummet โDeltaโ - et album, der byder pรฅ en rรฆkke samarbejder og bearbejdninger af materialet fra โFountainโ. Her gรฅr Pramuk i dialog med kunstnere som Ben Frost, Caterina Barbieri, Gabber Modus Operandi m.fl.
ALICE er begejstrede for at kunne afrunde Vinterjazz 2022 med denne exceptionelle kunstner, der optrรฆder i Musikhuset Kรธbenhavns smukke sal.
Adam Christensen
Den danske multikunstner Adam Christensen har en holistisk tilgang til sit kunstneriske virke og arbejder bรฅde med video, tekstiler, poesi og musik. Som support for Lyra Pramuk vil Christensen optrรฆde med sin harmonika. Var man heldig at opleve kunstneren pรฅ Badesรธen Festival i 2021 ved man, at koncerterne er ekstremt intense โ det er koncerter med livet, hjertet, sรฅrbarheder, ja hele mennesket, uden pรฅ tรธjet. Der veksles mellem inderlighed og afmagt, mand og kvinde, performance og person. En art Baby Dee med afsรฆt i fรธlelsesregistret mere end kabareten.
