[For English, see below.]
V Gromkinem podtalju se obeta srečanje z eno vodilnih formacij nove evropske improvizirane scene!
Kvartet Emmeluth’s Amoeba (Signe Emmeluth – alt saksofon, kompozicije; Karl Bjorå – kitara; Christian Balvig – klavir; Ole Mofjell – bobni) pod vodstvom saksofonistke in skladateljice Signe Emmeluth danes sodi v sam vrh sodobnega skandinavskega free jazza. Zasedba ustvarja napeto in nepredvidljivo glasbo, ki jo zaznamuje izjemno usklajena kolektivna igra – preplet surove energije, premišljene kompozicije in odprte improvizacije, v kateri se struktura in spontanost nenehno preizprašujeta in prelivata.
Nastopali so na festivalih, kot so Saalfelden Jazz Festival, Artacts in Oslo Jazz Festival, mednarodna kritika pa izpostavlja njihovo skoraj telepatsko medsebojno odzivanje in intenzivno kolektivno dinamiko.
Ljubljanski koncert bo posvečen predstavitvi novega albuma With Love, ki izide 6. marca 2026. Plošča ne bo dostopna na pretočnih platformah, temveč bo na voljo izključno v fizični izdaji.
Večer bo odprl trio Jaz, drevo (Giovanni Maier – violončelo; Cene Resnik – saksofoni; Boris Janje – kontrabas), ki ustvarja zgoščeno, introspektivno improvizacijo, kjer tišina ni premor, temveč enakovreden zvočni element.
Vstopnina: 15 € / 10 € (znižana)
Za študente in upokojence velja znižana cena.
Za gibalno ovirane, njihove asistente je vstop prost.

In Gromka’s underground space, a meeting with one of the leading formations of the new European improvised music scene is in store!
The quartet Emmeluth’s Amoeba(Signe Emmeluth – alto saxophone, compositions; Karl Bjorå – guitar; Christian Balvig – piano; Ole Mofjell – drums), led by saxophonist and composer Signe Emmeluth, today ranks among the very top of contemporary Scandinavian free jazz. The ensemble creates tense and unpredictable music marked by exceptionally coordinated collective playing—a blend of raw energy, thoughtful composition, and open improvisation, in which structure and spontaneity are constantly questioned and interwoven.
They have performed at festivals such as the Saalfelden Jazz Festival, Artacts, and the Oslo Jazz Festival, and international critics highlight their almost telepathic responsiveness to one another and their intense collective dynamics.
The Ljubljana concert will be dedicated to presenting their new album With Love, released on March 6, 2026. The record will not be available on streaming platforms but only as a physical release.
The evening will open with the trio Jaz, drevo (Giovanni Maier – cello; Cene Resnik – saxophones; Boris Janje – double bass), who create dense, introspective improvisation in which silence is not a pause but an equal sonic element.
Admission:€15 / €10 (reduced)
