A meditative musical space

As part of Aarhus Jazz Festival's concert series New Tracks, AUT (Aarhus Unge Tonekunstere) hosts a late-night concert in collaboration with Carsten Seyer-Hansen and Aarhus Cathedral. 

The concert presents Gagaku, an ancient Japanese music form, led by Haruhiko Okabe, and a piece written by Frederik Sakham for Aarhus Cathedral inspired by holy music from around the world.

At the concert, jazz festival audiences will be given a meditative space to immerse themselves and digest the many impressions of the festival. However, meditative does not equal quiet and boring. On the contrary, their music will make the most of the large, beautiful church building and its magical acoustic properties in order to conjure up the embedded history and spirituality of the room.

The concert will feature two projects, Soma & Lil feat. Haruhiko Okabe and Liéux, which is Frederik Sakham's project for compositions and improvisations relating to specific places.

Programme:
Renditions of traditional Gagaku pieces.
Liéux IV - Aarhus Cathedral (2018), a location-related composition by Frederik Sakham. 

New Directions is a collaboration between Aarhus Jazz Festival, AUT - Aarhus Unge Tonekunstnere, and Århus Sinfonietta. New Directions is supported by Augustinus Fonden, Toyota-Fonden, Knud Højgaards Fond og Koda Kultur.
