Philipp´s Special Tuesday (Tsolis/Zarfl/Marktl) im raum 8, in der 8. Mai Strasse 28 IST NICHT ABGESAGT, da über Nacht eine kurzfristige Genehmigung der Stadt vorliegt.
Dem Verein Innenhofkultur tut es sehr leid, dass auf Grund der negativen Entwicklungen mit dem raj in der Badgasse solche Situationen entstehen, die weder im Interesse der KünstlerInnen, noch im Interesse der KulturliebhaberInnen sind. Es entstehen zusätzliche Kosten, zusätzlicher Organisationsaufwand und Verwirrung und Unsicherheit bei BesucherInnen und KünstlerInnen.
Trotzdem: Georgios Tsolis - piano | Philipp Zarfl - bass | Klemens Marktl - drums

Georgios Tsolis is a greek jazz pianist, arranger, and composer that was born and raised in the island of Kefalonia western Greece, currently living in the Hague the Netherlands. He is an active jazz performer since 2005 both in the Greek and Dutch jazz scene. He studied at the royal conservatory of the Hague and he holds a bachelors and masters diploma in jazz piano performance.

He is mainly performing with small groups and most of his personal work refers to jazz piano trios. As a bandleader, he participated in many jazz festivals in Greece and Holland with his trio performing his original compositions. He has received very good Reviews from both Greek and Dutch magazines and newspapers for his performances as well as his first personal album. His diverse musical background from classical, to traditional Greek music from Latin to free improvisation, his conservatory years studying the tradition of jazz,  and Influences from masters like Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock meet all together in his music.

 A constant quest for oneself as the key to continuous progress is a view of life for Georgios and music is his vehicle to this quest. “ I improve my self as a person along with my music „

 “daring to diverge” is an expression of creativity for him. His idea of structured and well-executed arrangements coexisting with the freedom of spontaneous improvisation sets the main direction at his musical search. As a performer, He likes often to go out of his comfort zone trying new ideas and techniques. Interactive performance and collectivity in the improvisations are what he asks from his bandmates. As a composer, he tends to experiment with the “ expansion “ of the traditional harmony and forms. He aims for strong and narrative melodies that they can “dress” his idea about harmony, form, and improvisation at his compositions.

With great respect to the jazz tradition he eager to carry on the sound of jazz with his own point of view to the nowadays.

Intentional & Random: a festival | Villa For Forest

Villa For Forest, Viktringer Ring 21, 9020 Klagenfurt Join us for an evening of music that explores the boundaries of sound and performance.

Beginning at 18:30, the event will open with a collaborative sound installation Quotidian Reminiscence in the garden of Villa for Forest. The sonic positions of the installation are distributed across the outside space, inviting listeners to roam around and encounter dialogues among eight micro-compositions that capture moments of habitual personal contexts. The installation will remain active throughout the entire event, providing an immersive sonic backdrop to three distinctive concerts. At 19:30, the first concert features a new work by Klagenfurt-based composer Bastien Brännland, alongside Matthew Schlomowitz's Letter Piece #5: Northern Cities, for two players performing music, actions, and text; Alban Berg’s 4 Stücke, Op. 5, which delves into virtuosic atonality through extended techniques such as flutter-tonguing and extreme dynamics; and John Zorn’s seminal "game piece" Cobra, where performers shape the music in real time through cues and gestures. The 20:30 concert showcases Julius Eastman's minimalist masterpiece Stay On It – a work by a composer whose brilliant contributions were almost completely lost but have recently achieved high acclaim – paired with Peter Ablinger's noise piece Nanophony for soft sounds and loud amplification. The final concert at 21:30 will conclude the evening with an experimental improvisation designed and performed by a quintet of composer-performers, sympathetically agitated by Christopher A. Williams.

From the opening collaborative sound installation to the final improvisation set, Intentional & Random promises a unique journey through sound, intermedia and performance. Whether you're a seasoned experimental music enthusiast or a curious first-time listener, this event offers a unique opportunity to explore the frontiers of musical expression.

All are welcome!
