Description
Fourth album of a quite unusual line-up of high profile improvisers from the Dutch jazz and improv scene
Bayachrimae is a word coming from the combination of Bayaka and Lachrimae, both referring to sources of inspiration for the group: the music of the Bayaka people from Central Africa, and the piece 'Lachrimae' from the famous English Renaissance composer, John Dowland. Both represent musical cultures where single lines are at the core of things, cultures where the whole in many cases is a consequence of these individual lines, and not the other way around.
Estafest means profound musical freedom where any source of inspiration or personal colour can be introduced at all times. Their compositions are incentives for dialogue - from the first tone they jump in, together.
A mentor once described music as circles constantly moving from and towards each other. The circles represent the individual players, each player their own specific set of frequencies. Sometimes floating apart, sometimes overlapping, but always portraying one image.
