Eclipse - Barbara Wiernik & Josef Dumoulin
An universe of concentration, listening and complicity leaving the door open to improvisation and common search. Music free and beautiful like a crying laughter, sailing far from preconceived ideas and off the beaten track. This project is representative of the “new wave” of the European jazz. The repertoire, mostly original, is inspired by contemporary jazz, classical or traditional European and indian music.
