La Nuée is one of the saxophonist Johannes Eimermacher’s bands. As the name suggests, the band emerged from a fascination with the movements of flocks of birds. Just as the flock seems to be as single organism, the musicians aim to form a single body of sound. One organism that breathes, altering its shape and density, changing its speed or direction. La Nuée explores both the world of the saxophone’s sound and the different possibilities for working in a group.
The second part of the evening is reserved for the grand master Jaap Blonk. As a composer, performer and poet, he requires no introduction. His trademark is exploring the realm of the voice. We await his contribution to NOISENOISENOISE with bated breath.
