Avant-Premiere

Description:

This work is full of original music by the trio "Avant-Premiere," which was born at the Shimokitazawa jazz bar "LADY JANE"! The producer is Yutaka Ohki, the owner of the bar, who has been performing there since 2011 and is a heavyweight in Shimokitazawa who has written numerous books, planned events, and produced CDs. The trio "Avant-Premiere" consists of saxophonists Hiroshi Suzuki, Ryota Azuma, and Junichi Kamiunten. The three-dimensional performance features original compositions by Hiroshi Suzuki, who draws sounds intuitively while casually using special saxophone techniques, Okinawa-born Junichi Kamiunten's own compositions that approach the instincts of rhythm, and Ryota Azuma, a first-class graduate of the University of the Arts, who has a strict repertoire of classical music arrangements. Included are Rameau and Coupland, played like bagpipes with circular breathing from beginning to end, Kurt Weill's "Eucalyptus Tango," which recalls Utopia after the Corona Disaster, and Saint-Saens' "Dance of Death," in which even skeletons leap from the grave.
