Our distinguished artist in residence in february is none other than the incredible sax, flute, taragot player and composer Morten Carlsen
Its nearly impossible to sum up the carreer of the great Morten Carlsen.
He has simply been a defining voice of Scandinavian creative music for decades.. Throughout his working life he has focused on sound: Concrete sound, synthetic, electronic sound and many different kinds of music. The starting point was the clarinet, saxophone and jazz, free improvisation, folk music from Africa and the East. Later, new music and sound art, both as musician and composer. As improvisor he possesses an extraordinary sharpness and a strong presence which unfolds in an excellent instrument technique. Member of the New Jungle Orchestra 1981 - 2014, he has toured most of the world and collaborated with musicians from China, Vietnam, Bali, Mongolia, Africa and the US. He has been teaching at music academies and institutes for electroacoustics in Denmark and abroad and participated in hundreds of releases. In 2014 he started as lecturer in performance and ethnomusicology at the Department of Arts and Cultural Studies of Copenhagen University....

kl 19 Julius Windish Forsythia
Violin - Lisa Vogel
Viola - Pauline Hogstrand
Cello - Ida Nørby
Trumpet - Tyge Jessen
Piano/Comp - Julius Windisch
Doublebass - Alexander Dawo
Drums - Simon Albertsen
Julius Windisch mixes influences from romantic music, contemporary classical music, electronic, programmed music with the spirit and the sound of Jazz and Free Improvisation.
He is trying to present that many different kinds of music are not as far apart from each other as it is the social belief they are. In the end it is only about the message one tries to convey with his or her music. It is this message that interests Julius and that he tries to develop - his vision of music that he always wants to come closer to.

Extracting and deconstructing sonic impressions from the outside world, industrialization and nature, they reconstruct their own universe that breathes and grows as a living organism. Lawaai fights for a better world and against the division between sound and music.
