Loriot/Kahn/Wolfarth
Frantz Loriot - viola
Jason Kahn – analogue synthesizer
Christian Wolfarth - percussion
The trio of Christian Wolfarth (percussion), Frantz Loriot (viola) and Jason Kahn (electronics) has emerged as one of the most adventurous collaborations on the Swiss free improvisation scene. What sets them apart from other groups is their strong backgrounds as solo performers, each of the musicians having already released numerous solo recordings and performing as soloists for many years around the world. The unshakable autonomy displayed in each musician creates such a strong foundation for the group’s playing that the music often seems to exist on the verge of complete dissolution, only to find itself again in what can truly be called a radical approach to free improvisation.
