HOSHO & CORE OF THE COALMAN im Südbalkon

HOSHO: John Hughes/Kontrabass & Kompositionen,Jörg Hochapfel/Klavier, Chad Popple/Schlagzeug Hosho spielt Kompositionen, teilweise notiert und/oder spontan improvisiert, die das rhythmische und harmonische Potential des traditionellen Trio-Formats voll ausschöpfen. Durch die kollektive Realisation der Kompositionen und die freie Interaktion der Band entsteht bei jedem Konzert Neues. Die Einflüsse reichen dabei von Jazzstilistiken wie Bebop bis hin zu asiatischen und afrikanischen Musiken: das musikalische Ergebnis ist rhythmisch treibend, perkussiv und swingt mächtig. https://www.myspace.com/hosho3 CORE OF THE COALMAN: Jorge Boehringer (US/CZ, ex-Caroliner) is an electro-acoustic musician, composer, sound designer, and installation artist from the United States. He was born in New York, grew up in Texas, and then moved to Oakland, California. Since coming to the San Francisco Bay Area ten years ago he has become an unstoppable navigational presence in the noise and experimental music scenes. Having performed throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and Japan, he is now living in Prague. As one of his alter-egos Core of the Coalman, Jorge performs solo on a variety of electrical and acoustic media in live performance. These pieces address a variety of conceptual and artistic questions and result in the creation of novel sonic architectures. Core of the Coalman consists of continuity and discontinuity for viola, voice and circuits on the border between order and chaos.. Sonically diverse and sometimes explosive in texture, Core of the Coalman emphasizes the physicality of sound and its psychedelic relationship with our perceptual and environmental mechanics. Experimental in nature, this project has comfortably shared programs with everything from rock bands (from Deerhoof to Skullflower), to power electronics and noise (such as D Yellow Swans and Dead Machines), and famed avant-garde figures (like Ikue Mori, Pauline Oliveros, and Ghedalia Tazartes), and has been featured on contemporary classical music concerts as well as in major museums and gallery performances. https://www.myspace.com/coreoggthecoalman
