Isabelle Duthoit (Clarinet, voice), Franz Hautzinger (trumpet), Brian Chase (drums), Ron Anderson (bass)
I have known Isabelle Duthoit from many years and she is one of the most amazing improvisers to be found in Europe. She is coming to North America to do a series of concerts with Austrian trumpet player Franz Hautzinger. I have decided to play bass for this gig and have invited&Brian Chase to join us.
Born in 1970 in Montargis. Classically trained Isabelle Duthoit is moving quickly towards today&s music working with various ensembles and composers. It finds its rightful place in the world of free improvisation. With the Trio Sofa, project photo phonographic and music, she tries to play the sound (music) in a sound and visual territory daily, listening space and slip into vitality & without staging. As has always been attracted by her voice, she has developed only a singing technique singular language before language. She sings and improvised solo and duet with Phil Minton. In 2008, she was a resident at the Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto (Japan) to perform a solo vocal performance in relation to the sound world of Noh and Bunraku theater. From 1995 to 2005, it is committed to the creation and improvised music by creating Fruits Festival Mh&re &fields of improvisation& with Jacques Di Donato. Since 1997 she teaches clarinet and improvisation at the Conservatoire Departmental Evry (Essonne).
Detours often lead to more thrilling goals because they open up new perspectives. Franz Hautzinger has taken long and bendy detours and turned to many dead ends, he has spent years without instrumental activity and has made a hopeful new start. All this, those victories and defeats, this &History from the Total Crash to &Emergency Individualism&&, as he himself described it, made Franz Hautzinger the highly profiled musical personality that he is today.
The conscious decision to avoid electronic sound sources but to still comprehend the development of digital music on the trumpet & the quarter tone trumpet purchased in 1997 & were decisive stages for the creation of Franz Hautzinger&s sensational solo trumpet CD &Gomberg& (2000) on which he presented this new until then unheard cosmos of sound that he had developed on his instrument. Hautzinger positioned himself with &Gomberg& at the front line of the international improvisation avant- collaborations and CD records with Derek Bailey, the &AMM& veterans Keith Rowe and John Tilbury as well as Axel D&rner, Christian Fennesz or Otomo Yoshihide, and Sachiko M followed. The step into the world of decelerated sound microscopy and from 2003 on the re-discovery of musical sensualism, the confrontation of his trumpet sounds with groove and tunes (&Regenorchester XI& and XII) can be considered as important stages in his development. Franz Hautzinger teaches at the Vienna Music University since 1989, is a member of the Berliner Ensemble &Zeitkratzer& since 1999 and received comissions from Klangforum Vienna amongst others. He is a globetrotter whose unmistakeable musical signature is known from Vienna to Berlin, London to Beirut, or in Tokyo, New York, and Chicago. Franz Hautzinger has shown that even in times where postmodernism is history an instrument can still be reinvented.

He has performed in a number of experimental duos with other musicians such as Stefan Tcherepnin and Seth Misterka, with whom he released a CD Duo on the Australian Heathen Skulls label in 2007.Other musicians he has played with include Jessica Pavone, Mary Halvorson, Moppa Elliott, and groups Oakley Hall, Blarvuster, and klezmerfusionists The Sway Machinery.

Insect Ark - Dana SchecterInsect Ark is the new solo project from Dana Schechter, known for her work with Bee and Flower and M. Gira&s Angels of Light (Swans). Based in Brooklyn, INSECT ARK is composed and performed as an analog-electronic hybrid: one woman, a sampler, a bass, a lapsteel and a keyboard.&Creating her personal soundtrack to the human psyche&s underbelly, Schechter&s sounds weave a brooding, textural landscape, a starless night spiked with sparkling moments of light and flash. Intimate and cold at the same time, this foray into her aggressive and experimental musical side braids a strong sense of melody into the twists and turns with delay drenched lapsteel, distorted synthesizers and bass, and sparse drum programming.
Anthony ColemanAccomplished keyboard player and composer Anthony Coleman has gained recognition as an inspired player and talented standout of the avant-garde and klezmer-oriented jazz coming out of N.Y.C.'s downtown.

9pm& Valerie Kuehne - Cellist and performance artist Valerie Kuehne is a cross-pollinated work of chaos fusing together music, performance art, narrative, and experimental curation. After moving to New York to study Philosophy at The New School, Ms. Kuehne has systematically bifurcated her time between touring the planet, performing in as many unexpected settings as possible, and building a community for experimental music and performance art in New York. &Ms. Kuehne&s work operates under principles of surprise, and investigates obsession, comedy, decay, forensic pathology, sex, hypnogogia, viscera, death. She created and composed for the ensemble Dream Zoo and is one third of the improvised music trio Prehistoric Horse.
10pm& Chris Pitsiokos (sax, electronics) Weasel Walter (drums) Ron Anderson (guitar) -& Weasel Walter and Ron Anderson are both cornerstones of the New York avant-music scene. Since the early nineties, these improvisers and composers have lived a parallel musical existence: Weasel with his band The Flying Luttenbachers and Ron with The Molecules and PAK. Over the last 30 years they have performed with a long list of some of the most creative musicians on the planet and they collectively appear on nearly 200 commercial releases. This night they will be joined by relative newcomer Chris Pitsiokos who has had an incredibly active performance schedule in the last 18 months. Recently, the trio was in the studio recording a new CD that is scheduled for release in July on Eleatic Records and will be available at the performance. &
11pm& Les Rhinoceros && &formed in 2008 by bassist and composer Michael Coltun. a trio consisting of bass, guitar, and drums. Les Rhinoc&ros&was the first release in Tzadik&s new spotlight series - a series focusing on &exemplary young bands with great dedication, passion, talent and imagination." The series came to life after executive producer&John Zorn&heard Les Rhinoc&ros and knew he wanted the band as part of the &Tzadik Family&. Thus the Spotlight Series was born as a means to release this album and, going forward, other albums by exceptional young artists handpicked by Zorn."

Ron Anderson - guitar, voice, trumpetThomas Scandura -drumsJohn Shiurba - bass. voice
&Paroxysmal and
unpredictable, spazz-core trio the Molecules was
Area underground fixture in the early '90s.
Formed in 1990 by
guitarist Ron Anderson, drummer
Thomas Scandura, and bassist
Chris Millner, the
Oakland-based band went through two more
bassists, the
third being John Shiurba. The industrious
played lo they seemed to
specialize in opening for Japanese noise bands. The
oft-challenging performances predated much of today's avant-weird
by a decade, serving up a genre scramble that drew equally
prog, no wave, punk. They
managed to release several
exceptional albums and kept
up a hefty touring regimen that
included jaunts across
North America, Europe, and Japan. The
band's keen
approach to deconstructing song arrangements and
experimental willpower were adored by many Japanese noise
rockers and led to collaborations and tours with Otomo Yoshihide,
Melt Banana, Merzbow, and Ruins. This frantic and exciting
is definitely not for the fainthearted.
