G Livelab, Yrjönkatu 3, 00120 Helsinki
Pohjosen uusi soolo, UZone, vie tätä elektroakustisen harmonikan tutkimusmatkaa yhä syvemmälle. Viha-rakkaus suhde harmonikkaan siis jatkuu vielä, toistaiseksi.
Konsertin kesto noin 70-80 min
Kimmo Pohjonen, elektro-akustinen harmonikka
Sami Tammela, äänisuunnittelu
VJ Hellstone, visuaalinen suunnittelu
Konsertti on ikärajaton.
The legendary accordionist Kimmo Pohjonen has worked with sound and searched for new colours with his instrument for the past 30 years. UZone project takes this to a new level: Pohjonen plays melody, harmony, rhythms, controls different effects and sculpts the sound in the space. He even controls the visuals and lights with his accordion.
Kimmo Pohjonen extends the range of the accordion beyond anything I've previously heard.( Songlines)
The kind of freewheeling performer who could easily have slotted alongside John Zorn and Han Bennink. Inimitable. (The Guardian)
Calling Kimmo Pohjonen an accordionist is a bit like describing the Encyclopedia Brittanica as a book. (The Herald, Scotland)
The music is sheer physicality… (New York Times)
As a fearless adventurer in music, he remains doggedly unaffiliated to any scene, trend or ethos. (ALL ABOUT JAZZ )
