About
Double bill: Gabriel de Oliveira + Frank Rosaly This late-night concert kicks off with with the world premiere of Gabriel de Oliveira’s mundu lawaai. A work for a six-piece ensemble that blends club culture, poetry, percussion and electronics. The night continues with Bimini, an intensive solo drum performance by Frank Rosaly. Rhythm and meditation merge under the light design of Noortje van den Eijnde. Stretching far beyond the standard concert format, Bimini is a nocturnal, collective experience echoing themes of freedom, escape, and letting go. Oliveira, a Brazilian-born driving force in Amsterdam’s improvisation scene, is forging a distinctive sonic language with his group. Their soundscape is one of live-sampled improvisations, cyclic beat-songs, and layered spoken word. The music alludes to both Dutch instant composing and minimalist dub studio experiments. In the spirit of Arthur Russell’s World of Echo, mundu lawaai is on a quest to establish new connections between club, ritual, and chamber music. Frank Rosaly’s drumming skills and improvisational spirit were forged in Chicago. Since 2016, he has been based in Amsterdam. For Bimini, Rosaly researched ritual and ceremonial traditions rooted in the indigenous Taíno culture of the Caribbean. mundu lawaai is a production by Space is The Place Program: Gabriel de Oliveira, mundu lawaai Frank Rosaly, Bimini
