CRAM - FriForma Residency Ljubljana, day 1 set 3 - Resnik / Thompson / Taylor Trio

These sets flip zones like unlucky lottery tickets!

Incredible spontaneous chamber music from Cene Resnik, Daniel Thompson & Benedict Taylor. With giant elephant ears loving the silence as much as the big bang, this trio marches calmly into a new world of unseen dialogues.

CRAM - FriForma Residency Ljubljana, day 1 set 1 - Opening Octet

The wonderful moment when 8 musicians who've just met get together to make such wonderful art spontaneously. Can there be a better opening conversation between people...

Top guns of the Slovenian & UK improvised music scene come together to make their manifesto for the CRAM - FriForma Residency in this outstanding opening octet.

Amazing Slovenian residency as CRAM headed to Ljubljana to collaborate with FriForma

An incredible time was had during FriForma - CRAM Residency in Ljubljana. Wonderful music was created by 8 outstanding artists. During a packed 48 hours we had 2 concerts and a superb recording session. New friendships emerged (very very quickly) and unbelievable dialogues & musical relationships ensued. From that such beautiful music was created.

Huge thanks to our incredible players: Cene Resnik, Tom Jackson, Tomaz Grom, Daniel Thompson, Vid Drasler, Benedict Taylor, Jost Drasler & Alex Ward. A bunch of musical magicians, beautiful lunatics, wonderful wandering minstrels! 

An enormous call out to Laszlo Juhasz & Nataša Serec and of course their great work with Kud Mezra / FriForma. Without the vision of Natasa & Laszlo, none of these events could ever have happened.

A super international collaboration...just beginning...watch this space, there will be more..........
