identity:
The identity of these groups is based on a very simple principle. Its
members thought it necessary to opt for sound clearness, timbre
richness and harmonic completeness. Different melodic resources are
being explored through the approach to original arrangements of
compositions drawn from a wide range of popular and jazz references.
The group’s work aims at constantly reviewing and refining
arrangements and improvisational criteria, by placing emphasis on a
relaxed and minimal approach to the sound organization, as well as by
searching for a dynamic balance between the harmonic tension and
relaxation existing in today’s musical languages. The process
is
made possible by means of an instrumental role exchange, designed to
create a rotation dynamic effect assigning different spaces to each
instrument in the performance. The process is being developed in small
separate units influenced now by thematic references, now by tonal
relationships, as well as by the alternate succession of written and
improvised sections.
The players join their stylistic personal vision and their creative
sensitivity with collective contribution in the characteristic research
about focus of dynamic balance, among rhythmic and harmonic tension and
relaxation along today's musical language reflecting relationship among
past/tradition, present/interpretation, future/innovation.
