Kiezsalon w/ Suzan Peeters, Yaz Lancaster and Mattias Hållsten

Brussels-based accordionist, composer and improviser Suzan Peeters is constantly searching for new timbres and sound textures within her instrument, pushing its acoustic spectrum to its limits by manipulating the interplay between its body and hers and further transforming the sound through extended techniques, objects and live electronics. Of her 2025 album , The Free Jazz Collective said: “Peeters has breathed new life into her instrument and given it the spirit of a dragon, disturbing and enchanting in equal measure.”

Working with violin, voice, objects and electronics, Yaz Lancaster’s practice encompasses electroacoustic performances and notated compositions, as well as post-genre DJ-ing, music writing, steel pan drums, collage-based poetry and organising DIY shows in New York. Their focus on nurturing collaborations is reflected on their second album, 2025’s , which Bandcamp Daily called “a kind of all-star set for contemporary New York City sound artists working in liminal musical spaces.”

Mattias Hållsten is a Swedish composer and musician whose work has a special emphasis on precise intonation and the ways the harmonic series can be manifested in the listening experience. He specialises in the Japanese mouth organ shō, and has performed solo with the instrument across Europe, as well as with the Kamigaku Ensemble and in recordings for various artists. KLOF wrote that his appearance on Masayoshi Fujita’s 2024 album Migratory “helps give a yearning grandiosity to In A Sunny Meadow, and lends extra depth to Pale Purple.”
