Forest improvisations and hand-built harps

Jennifer Lucy Allan explores musical roads less travelled, with free jazz musicians Peter Brötzmann and Han Bennink improvising in a forest and Quinta’s hand-built aeolian harp.

Jennifer Lucy Allan explores musical roads less travelled, with free jazz musicians Peter Brötzmann and Han Bennink improvising out in the wilds of Germany’s Black Forest, and the sound of a hand-built aeolian harp - an instrument whose strings are played by the wind - designed by London-based multi-instrumentalist and composer Quinta following an inspirational period of time spent living in Greece. Elsewhere in the show, we return to Kraków with Polish-born audiovisual artist and instrument-maker Wojciech Rusin to hear a specially-commissioned piece performed at this year’s Unsound festival.
