FALLEN FLAGS (UK/DK)
Vi præsenterer stolt Fallen Flags (UK/DK): Et samarbejde om alternativ musik på tværs af byer.
Forbered dig på at fordybe dig i musikalsk udforskning, der overskrider grænser og genrer. Fallen Flags er et projekt, der forener musikere fra Manchester (UK), Aalborg (DK) og Aarhus (DK). Arbejdet bringer fem talentfulde unge musikere sammen om at skabe stærke bånd og netværk mellem musikmiljøerne i disse pulserende byer og deres musikscener.
Projektets fokus har klare rødder i den alternative musik, der blandt andet spænder over eksperimenter og improvisation inden for jazz. Det dynamiske ensemble samarbejder i tre dage til øve- og studiosession på KORMA i Aalborg. Dette samarbejde kulminerer i to elektrificerende optrædener, og vi er så heldige, at den ene finder sted på Radar de, 8. november.
