SYM-BOLIC//INGO-LIG Ignaz Schick (alto + baritone saxophone) Ingebrigt Håker-Flaten (double bass) Oliver Steidle (drums, percussion)

This new acoustic trio and supergroup is consisting of three of the most iconic players of todays European jazz, improvisation and experimental music scene. This line-up took a long birth phase, but was a logical step and basically came out of juggling the possibilities and attempts of combining the effort of two high energy noise + electro-acoustic duos; Ignaz Schick/Oliver Steidle (ILOG) and Ingebrigt-Håker-Flaten/Ignaz Schick. Both duos started in 2013 (ILOG) and 2015 (HÅKER-FLATEN/SCHICK) and have a long standing and fresh history – with concerts in clubs and festivals around Europe, the US and Mexico. But to merge both noise projects was a too obvious choice and somewhat diluting. So it was decided to leave the two power duos intact and separate, sister/brothers in crime to say, akin, but now allied in this wonderful acoustic trio with a back to the roots approach: Free Jazz and Free Improvisation! Pure, melodic, rhythmic, energetic and surprising. Don’t miss out on a rare opportunity to see this three gentleman, who knows when they come together again next, all three are extremely busy men with numerous individual projects and intense itineraries.
