Exploring the limits of guitar sound

With concoctions, advanced techniques, and alternative playing styles, the duo Yngel challenges the common understanding of the guitar. Using simple tools such as stones and metal objects, they explore and combine different approaches to the guitar and its sound in terms of composition and improvisation.

The duo is inspired by equal parts free jazz and punk, as well as classical music and folklore.

For the past year, Yngel has toured Indonesia, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, England, and Denmark.

The duo stems from the Copenhagen underground scene. Jazz special described their most recent album Yngel (2015) as a 'Post-everything-that-we-have-had-before-release. Post-composition, post-metal, post-folk, post-African music, post-avant-garde, post-funk, post-minimalism etc.' and also called it 'the most exciting jazz record of 2015!'

Lydbrud (Soundburst) - five concerts with young, prominent jazz singers
Under the title Lydbrud, the youth committee of the Danish Musicians Union in Aarhus repeats last year's success and curates another day filled with concerts that focus on young, prominent jazz singers.

This year, on Wednesday 18 July, there will be five concerts with artists from Sweden, Germany, Norway, Copenhagen, and Aarhus. The acts differ, but they all explore something special. Come and be inspired, moved, and enriched.
