Fazer

Munich-based jazz formation Fazer blends African and Latin American rhythms with dub basses and melancholic melodies. The unusual line-up of two percussionists, bass, guitar and trumpet provides plenty of scope for free improvisation. With patterns, as repeated elements are called in minimal music, and subtly explored dynamics, Fazer generate a rousing energy – which the five musicians now unleash in the Elbphilharmonie Recital Hall shortly after the release of their debut album.
