Paal Nilssen - Love: Circus

Concert by Paal Nilssen-Love as part of the October Jazz Festival.

PAAL NILSSEN – LOVE: CIRCUS   Juliana Venter, vocals Thomas Johansson, trumpet Signe Emmeluth, alto saxophone Kalle Moberg, accordion Christian Meaas Svendsen, double bass Paal Nilssen-Love, drums   After five years, Paal Nilssen-Love returns to the Oktober Jazz stage with a sextet and a musical narrative for Circus, inspired by the musical treasures of Ethiopia and Brazil. He has also long been fascinated by the music of Mali and Senegal. Initially, the group performed with a conventional set list, with a predetermined order of pieces, but now Nilssen-Love likes to shake things up a bit by improvising as freely as possible, although it is still all based on scores. So anyone in the ensemble can play any part of any song at any time. Sometimes it happens that the group plays parts of three different songs at the same time. You are invited to participate in the organised chaos that brings their performances to a rapturous escalation, clapping and often dancing.   The concert will be followed by a tasting of natural orange and red UOU wines made from grapes from the consortium’s abandoned vineyards.   CIRCUS – bandcamp    The concert is in collaboration  with Controtempo from Krmin and the Jazz&Wine of Peace festival.   Tickets 25 €   Ticket office T: +386 5 335 40 16 E: blagajna@kulturnidom-ng.si   Contact & Information T: +386 5 335 40 13 E: pr@kulturnidom-ng.si
