Gerd Putscheff "!DUENDE NOW!"

Seville meets New York. Or to put it another way, melodic flamenco merges with gesture-rich jazz elements to create a completely new musical experience. The violin and jazz guitar are rhythmically supported by cajón, tablas, and drums. Jazz-Flamenco: Seville meets New York in "Duende Now," which brings the vibrancy of two musical traditions into a new light. By combining the rhythmic energy and typical melodic potential of flamenco with the improvisational language and lively gestures of jazz, a new atmospheric and sonic flair emerges: here, the characteristic sound of the Spanish guitar unites with the multifaceted improvisations of the violin and jazz guitar, along with the percussive spectrum of cajón, tablas, and drums. This music takes us into various musical worlds and creates a diversity of unmistakable musical voices and moods—ranging from a "festive" acoustic scenario to moments of reflection—where the musical language of Andalusia always shines through.
