The Uminari artists explore a blend of acoustic and electric sounds of old and new sonic languages. There is a restlessness at times to this trio that reflects life in the city. Yet glimpses of natural – that natural voice of things find their way through the collectives freely improvised utterances. This music does not shout at you, but rather calls you into conversation with a little debate and a little laughter.
The works presented tonight continue JOLT’s exploration of how inclusive collaborations draw forth new ideas and nourish the open fields of the avant-garde.
