Oene van Geel’s Untravelled Land

For Oene van Geel it feels like a absolute necessity to lead this new, extended formation. The renowned violin and viola player will introduce you to eight musicians of the new generation, who will all be given the room to shine. From oriental jazz to cinematic metal, from ambient soundscapes to lyrical chamber music: everything is possible.

Oene himself feels like a fish in water among these exceptional players. He offers them his compositions, but they will also bring in their own works. Expect close-knit ensemble playing by a wonderful palette of personalities: Chaerin Im, Antonio Moreno Glazkov and Alkistis Misouli are strong young jazz musicians. Christoph Teuschel and Fred Jacobsson are well-versed in the metal genre. And Modar Salama and Pouriya Jaberi form a groove tandem with a deep drive as well as a subtle touch.
