Suhina Klubi’s spring season ends with a bang, when Chris Corsano, Camila Nebbia & Jukka Kääriäinen take the stage on 4th of June

CHRIS CORSANO

Described as “one of the world’s greatest drummers” by 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘯 and “arguably the most riotously energetic and creative drummer in contemporary free jazz” by 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘦, New York-based 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗼 (b. 1975) has been active at the intersections of collective improvisation, free jazz, avant-rock, and experimental music since the late 90’s. His dedication to collective improvisation has led him to join forces with many kindred spirits, and he’s appeared on over 180 records and thousands of live performances. Besides his renown solo career, Corsano’s been the rim-batterer of choice for some of the greatest contemporary purveyors of jazz (Joe McPhee, Paul Flaherty, Mette Rasmussen, Zoh Amba) and rock (Sir Richard Bishop, Bill Orcutt, Jim O’Rourke), as well as artists beyond categorization (Björk for her Volta World Tour, Michael Flower, Okkyung Lee).

Syvään kuunteluun ja kollektiiviseen luovuuteen pohjautuva musiikki liikkuu vapaasti hienovaraisten tunnelmien, raa’an energian ja laajojen äänimaisemien välillä.

She is painter by education. Conceptually her work deal with the surrounding space.

ミス (misu)

ミス is a duo that performs sounds with loosely flapping strings and springs. The produced vibrations are then channeled through a gooey heap of electronics before bursting out of the speaker cones leaving a faint stench of doom metal in their wake. The cycle is completed when it all folds back on itself, fed back like the proverbial tail of Ouroboros. The chaos is further exacerbated by the partially Savonian lineup.
