Katya Sourikova freut sich sehr, den neuseeländischen Schlagzeuger Mark Lockett zu einem besonderen, einmaligen Doppelkonzert nach Berlin einzuladen!!

Mark Lockett ist ein erstklassiger neuseeländischer Schlagzeuger, kraftvoller Performer und geschmackvoller Zeitmesser. Zur Feier seines siebten Albums „Swings and Roundabouts“ sind Locketts Kompositionen vom Jazz-Giganten Ornette Coleman inspiriert und greifen gleichzeitig auf den modernen Sound seiner Zeitgenossen zurück. Auf dem in New York aufgenommenen Album sind die Top-New York-Schwergewichte David Binney, Duane Eubanks und Matt Penman zu hören. Meisterhafte Improvisationen in einem hochmodernen Setting.

Mark tourt derzeit durch Japan und Europa und hat für dieses Konzert im Berliner C-13 ein fantastisches Quartett zusammengestellt, bestehend aus den Saxophonisten Roger Manins und Greg Ambro, dem Bassisten Ben Lehmann und „Lion-Heart“ Lockett am Schlagzeug.

Katya Sourikova ist dem Berliner Jazz- und zeitgenössischen Publikum bestens bekannt. Wir begrüßen Mark und sein Quartett auf der Bühne mit dem renommierten Multiinstrumentalisten Richard McGraith. Katyas Einführungsset wird sich auf Musik aus ihren kommenden Jazz- und zeitgenössischen Klassik-Veröffentlichungen sowie auf ihre aktuelle Filmmusik stützen.

British Composer / Pianist Katya Sourikova joins Norwegian Noise-Drone Due Chattermark

October 14, 8pm, C13 13 Christburger Str, 10405 Berlin

Don’t miss this rare improvised music and audiovisual event!

Chattermark are John Lilja (electric bass and effects) and Gunhild Seim (trumpet & effects).

Founded with the desire to expand and transform their sound through the use of effects and advanced techniques, they have created something both massive and minimalist, resulting in impressive soundscapes and walls of sound.

Their debut album Chattermark (September 2022, Drollehålå Records) is reminiscent of the music of Sunn 0))), Anthony Pateras and Franz Hautzinger.

» Lilja and Seim structured seven distinct pieces that move between minimalist to massive and intense soundscapes, using drones, distortion, repetitive structures and slow burning noise. Their dense sonic compounds make it almost impossible to know which sound – acoustic, electronic, mutated, or processed, is coming from which instrument. All the pieces have a strong cinematic quality, and often evoke an unsettling sensibility, as if imagining and anticipating a coming apocalypse. « Eyal Hareuveni, Salt Peanuts Chattermark will perform the 1st set of the concert which includes video works by visual artists Signe Christine Urdal and Jon Garcia DePresno, including the piece “Mycelium,” a meditation on the forest in which Urdal and Seim explore the relationship between nature and humanity.

Katya Sourikova: Angels & Satellites // #PANDAwomen Angels & Satellites ist eine Produktion für Drei Musiker mit einem integrierten Videoprojection internationaler Künstler. Komponiert und kuratiert von Katya Sourikova, die Produktion ist eine musikalische Erkundung zwischen spirituellen Himmelskörpern und solchen, die vom Menschen geschaffen wurden. Es untersucht die menschliche Faszination für das Geistige und das Übernatürliche sowie unser Verlangen nach Wissen und Fortschritt. Angels and Satellites wirft durch Musik und Video die folgenden Fragen auf: Was ist ein Engel? Was ist ein Satellit? Wie können sie koexistieren? Wie beeinflussen sie das Leben auf Erden? Was wissen sie über uns? Was passiert, wenn ein Satellit auf die Erde fällt? Was geschieht, wenn zwei Satelliten zusammenstoßen? Was passiert, wenn ein Engel fällt?

Проект Aнгелы и Спутники был изначально задуман для трёх музыкантов, танцовщицы и видео инсталляции, но в рамках фестиваля пройдёт без участия танцовщицы. Композитор и пианистка Катя Сурикова, которая так-же придумала концепт проекта, через музыку и интегрированные визуальные аспекты приглашает публику задуматься на актуальные во все времена темы . Наше стремление к техническому прогрессу и ,в тоже время, поиск духовных ценностей-на первый взгляд, вещи разных категорий, тем не менее постоянно сопровождают нас в повседневной жизни. Отсюда и название Ангелы и Спутники. Дети часто задают вопросы: ‘ А как же они там на небе не сталкиваются? ‘ ‘А что, если он упадёт?’ ‘ А что каждый из них знает о нашей жизни на Земле? ‘ Такие вопросы вдохновляют на создание творческих мульти-медийных проектов!
