Info for Tumbuk

Für den Zweitling "Tumbuk" liess sich Andreas Tschopp wiederum von der Klangwelt indonesischer Gamelan-Musik inspirieren. Zusammen mit seinem hochkarätigen Taschen-Kammerorchester taucht er in eine faszinierende und facettenreiche Klangwelt ein: Irisierende Blechbläserpassagen wechseln ab mit expressiven improvisatorischen Eruptionen, virtuoses Gitarrengeschlängel windet sich um krumme Grooves, mal bleibt die Zeit fast stehen, mal geht alles extrem schnell. Die Musik von «Bubaran» ist ein fantasievoller Brückenschlag zwischen zwei Welten und macht die Bühne zum imaginären Dorfplatz, den Auftritt zum Volksfest.
