Slought Foundation and Soundfield NFP are pleased to announce an evening of new and experimental music featuring Vienna/London-based ensemble Polwechsel on Friday, October 3rd, 2008 from 8:00-9:30pm. (Please note the new date for this concert, which was originally scheduled for February 26, 2008.) Polwechsel features Werner Dafeldecker (double bass), Martin Brandlmayr (percussion), John Butcher (saxophones), Michael Moser (cello, electronics), and Burkhard Beins (percussion). They will be performing new compositions as well as selections from their recent HatArt CD release Archives of the North. This concert is part of the 2007-2008 Soundfield @ Slought series.
Over the past two decades Polwechsel’s output has thrived on a democratic process of specifically composing for the abilities and techniques of its cast with each member possessing a unique and developed voice in instrumental performance. During this period Polwechsel has produced divisive compositions, structured improvisation and electro-acoustic works which have all spoken intricately and explicitly on the organization of noise, the locus of technique, and the dynamism of the ensemble. -- Dean M. Roberts (December 2005)
