Microtonal Ensemble / Jazz History Ensemble
Tuesday, 02/11/2025 19:30 HfMT, JazzHall

On this evening you will hear the "Microtonal Ensemble" under the direction of lecturers Rami Olsen and Frederik Sturm and the Jazz History Ensemble under the direction of Prof. Fiete Felsch

Microtonal Ensemble: Popular jazz musicians such as Jacob Collier, Larry Goldings and Jake Sherman have already incorporated "microtones" into some of their works, but this is just the tip of the iceberg: microtonal music not only offers us more colorful, new jazz harmonies, but also access to non-European musical cultures, whose "vocabulary" (this time focusing on Moroccan Gnawa music) we integrate and with whose tone intervals, new to Western ears, we experiment. This semester, the Microtonal Ensemble has been working with 31 notes per octave and, for the first time, with microrhythms, and we are looking forward to presenting the results at this Ensemble Night!

Jazz History Ensemble: The development of different arrangements and pieces from the entire history of jazz and the attempt of a stylistic comparison of different eras is the program here.
