After the highly successful performance of microtonal jazz improviser Georg Vogel (Salzburg, 1988) during MicroFest Amsterdam 2019 at the Muziekgebouw, he is back this year with Austrian musicians David Dornig and Valentin Duit, with whom he has formed a musical trio for many years. What is special is that Vogel will now also play the Fokker organ. With this giddy jazz trio, called Dsilton, he performs energetic arrangements with microtones and modulating rhythms. The young, talented band members use an 8-string 31-tone electric guitar, drums, specially adapted electronic keyboards and the M-Claviton (a 31+5-tone keyboard built by Vogel himself). Because the M-Claviton is controlled via MIDI, the special instrument can be used for all possible sounds ánd connected to the Fokker organ! Vogel will therefore play the Fokker organ this morning via his M-Claviton. The Viennese trio will perform works from their new CD, among others, which will be released in late 2019/early 2020. Dsilton’s current program combines musical cycles by Georg Vogel and guitarist David Dornig. In terms of compositional techniques and improvisational frameworks, all pieces share complex grooves and the extended tonality of 31-tone tuning. The repertoire covers a huge range from jazz, progressive rock elements, traditional music from the Alps, Renaissance-inspired polyphony and serial 31-tone compositions to arrangements of field recordings from West Africa and other parts of the world. ‘Nothing sounds like what you are used to, but surrendering completely to this new world pays off,’ according to the Süddeutsche Zeitung. All these elements are combined by Dsilton, within which they find all sorts of interesting cross-connections. In short, a fascinating musical journey!
