Over het evenement
"Meetings"
The project is an exploration in crossover-ensembles. The incentive came from the excitement of making classically trained musicians and jazz musicians "speak" together musically, without sacrificing the integrity of the individual musicians. Samuel Kiel seeks to explore the forces that will provide a union of the two paradigms.
The concert will present the spirit of the early 1900’s string quartets combined with new classical music and improvised solos. Samuel’s unavoidable composition-style never fails to shine through and this musical endeavor is most-definitely another example of this.
The band consists of:
Ian Palazov - Violin
