Description

Prepared - a free-spirited trio based in Munich, in a chamber music formation that instinctively awakens the desire to dance and guides the listener into a hypnotic sound space. A pianist who constantly pounds, taps, and plucks the grand piano. A clarinetist who plays more bass than clarinet in the depths of his bass clarinet. And a drummer who, like a good record, keeps going endlessly, looping the grooves. Three Munich jazz musicians, united in their contrasts. One plays Argentine tango with Quadro Nuevo, another "folk music without folklore" with Dreiviertelblut, and the third German hip-hop with Moop Mama. In their new project Prepared, they merge cyclical motifs and skillfully layered patterns in minimalist yet highly virtuosic compositions, creating an enchanting total work of art. It's as if Steve Reich, Jonny Greenwood, Nik Bärtsch, and Dawn of Midi were thrown into the same pot.
