About event
La Ondou
Margareth Kammerer: voice, guitar
Rebecca Lane: voice, bass flute, objects
Deborah Walker: voice, cello, objects
The music of La Ondou is a journey that begins with Virginia Woolf's novel "Waves" — her microscopic observations of nature and the soul in the late 19th century. From these texts, new poems are created using the technique of "copying and pasting" to then transition to the lyricism of a young Sicilian poet and his new, powerful voice approximately one hundred years later, and then to a poem by the Spanish performer, vocalist and poet Lorena Iyquierdo.
The artists weave a tapestry of voices and instrumental tones, as well as the sounds of everyday objects. Inspired by the words of Virginia Woolf — "(...) In this universe there is nothing fixed, nothing fixed, everything undulates, everything dances (...)" — Kammerer, Lane and Walker create vivid, permeable and transparent musical structures that give space to the words and send them on their own journey together with the listeners.

Gebbia is considered one of the world's best specialists in the circular breathing technique, which allows him to create continuous, long notes, often leading to polyphonic illusions. In 1990 he participated solo in the Total Music Meeting in Berlin organized by FMP alongside musicians such as Steve Lacy and Lindsay Cooper. A year later, he initiated a collaboration with German percussionist Gunther Sommer and double bassist Peter Kowald, thus restoring one of the historic duets of European free jazz. In 2000, The Wire magazine ranked him among the leading representatives of solo saxophone players.
He draws inspiration from a wide range of sources, including painting, poetry, world philosophy and other jazz greats such as Marion Brown, Lee Konitz and Anthony Braxton. In the past he has collaborated with Heiner Goebbels, Fred Frith, Louis Sclavis, Gino Robair, Peter Kowald, Lukas Ligeti, Eiko Ishibashi and Tony Buck. You can find Gebbia's recordings in the catalogs of prestigious labels such as Victo, Intakt Records and Leo Records.
