OBS: Som konsekvens af den vidtfavnende globale situation med coronavirus/COVID-19, har Alex Zhang Hungtai desværre været nødt til at aflyse hele sin forårstour, og derfor også koncerten på ALICE 31. marts. Det er derfor med glæde at vi kan annoncere en ny dato for koncerten, nemlig 24. november. Billetterne til koncerten 31. marts kan bruges til den nye dato. Mere info om Corona-virus og ALICE her.
Døre kl 19 / Koncert kl 20
I sit soloprojekt skaber Alex Zhang Hungtai (Last Lizard, Dirty Beaches) kosmiske og meditative soundscapes af skæve saxofonoptagelser og synths. Efter flere fremragende koncerter på Jazzhouse, er vi glade for at kunne præsentere ham når han igen kommer til København.
Den taiwanesiske saxofonist og komponist Alex Zhang Hungtai er af de fleste kendt under under aliasserne Last Lizard og det nu hedengangne Dirty Beaches, hvor han har eksperimenteret med en klassisk, lo-fi-grumset rock’n’roll-lyd. Efter at have lagt Dirty Beaches på hylden har Alex Zhang Hungtais musikalske virke de seneste år været domineret af hans tiltagende arbejde med komposition og hans kærlighed til freejazz og improvisationsmusik. Han har derudover prøvet kræfter med filmsoundtracks og endda selv medvirket i film, mest nævneværdigt i tredje sæson af David Lynchs legendariske serie Twin Peaks.
I sit selvbetitlede soloprojekt arbejder Alex Zhang Hungtai med skæve saxofonoptagelser og synths, som gennem et digitalt filter bliver til rene, og meditative soundscapes, som både koncentreret og længselsfuldt flyder sammen med kirkeorgel-droner og tunge akkorder. Lyden vækker minder til dele af Dirty Beaches mere ambiente udgivelser, men klinger samtidig anderledes kosmisk og abstrakt. Som hvis Tim Hecker remixede Colin Stetson.
Alex Zhang Hungtai har spillet en lang række koncerter i København - ikke mindst på Jazzhouse - og har desuden en stærk tilknytning til det københavnske toneangivende undergrundsmiljø omkring Mayhem. Udover sit soloprojekt er Zhang Hungtai også en del af en free jazz/eksperimentaltrio med den portugisiske minimalist og arkitekt David Maranha og free jazz-trommeslageren Gabriel Ferrandini. Trioen gav netop koncert i forbindelse med Vinterjazz på Jazzhouse i 2017. Til november glæder vi os til at kunne præsentere Alex Zhang Hungtai solo for første gang.
In English:
After retiring from his project Dirty Beaches, Zhang has been focusing on explorations of improvised music, Free Jazz, and his new role as a composer. His newer compositions predominantly works with saxophone, synthesizers, percussion and piano, furthering his research on ritualistic music of liminality. Besides his solo work, he is also a member of a Free Jazz/experimental trio with Portugese minimalist/architect David Maranha, and Free Jazz Drummer Gabriel Ferrandini in Lisbon. Zhang currently works as a composer for film soundtracks, along with acting in independent films. This November we’re happy to present Alex Zhang Hungtai solo at ALICE.
