Info for UnCool

Adomas Rekasius TREE präsentiert ureigene Piano Trio-Musik.

Sie beruht auf dem breiten musikalischen Hintergrund der drei Musiker.

In den Klängen des Trios treffen klassische Klangästhetik, orchestrale Romantik, repetitive Muster, polyrhythmisch verzahnte Strukturen und Jazz-Attitüden aufeinander.

"UnCool ist ein ausgedachter Name, für den emotionalen Zustand, der für diese Musik verantwortlich ist. Es ist Statement und Haltung gegenüber dem amerikanischen Begriff „COOL“, der wie ein Markenzeichen in unserer musikalischen und kulturellen Epoche emotionale Inhalte färbt. UnCool sind frei und spontan erzählte Geschichten über das Wahrste, über das Wichtigste, über den ewigen Moment des Jetzt!" (ADOMAS REKASIUS)
