Copenhagen O p e n f o r m Festival 2015
BEETHOVEN, JAZZSTANDARDS AND FREE IMPROVISATION
This is NOT a joke: specialists play Beethoven, Debussy and jazzstandards like Body and Soul, Pennies from Heaven etc. In between the other music there are free improvisations.
Especially recommended for those who are not accustomed to listening to a lot of new and improvised music. The "strange" thing about it will be strongly diluted ;-)
At the same time, musicians also relate to this special situation which is an experimental thing in itself.
