Grandmothers favourite CZ/DE (modern creative, impro, auto-composition)
Grandmothers favourite CZ/DE (modern creative, impro, auto-composition)
Post modern sudoku jazz
To mistake is the only chance for something new to happen and therefor isn’t a mistake.
Unrehearsed, impolite, unwashed, charismatic, vicious sounds from the pit.
Instant compositions. The naive glorification of improvising the new.
Drums, no input mixer, prepared objects, feedback fun, vocals, recorder - Jakub Švejnar
Guitar, synth, fx, vocals, tape - Daniel Bierdümpfl

DonauVerhau AT/DE/IT (Jazz manouche, gypsy Jazz)
...is an enchanting conglomerate of musical fisher*wo*man reaching for the poetics of every metaphorical river floating on this planet.
DonauVerhau is an international group of musicians from Austria, Italy and Germany living in Linz (Austria) by its eponym;
the beautiful river Danube. Just like the Danube, which crosses all over Europe and is connecting various cultures along the way (in fact more than any other river on earth), the Bands aspiration is to interconnect cultures musically and lyrically all along its fluid journey.

Collective Composing is a project for the mediation and promotion of contemporary music.
In a blitz workshop, a simple, already formulated graphic notation method was presented in order to subsequently provide the audience with a small "vocabulary book" of the notation method, a sheet of paper and, of course, a pen for composing. Everyone was invited to draw their own spontaneous composition using graphic notation, which then was distributed to the musicians. Over the course of the evening, several improvised mini-compositions were be created and played, for which the audience, in the nearest sense of the word, is drawn responsible.
