Joanna Mattrey on viola, Camila Nebbia on tenor sax, Camilo Ángeles on flute and Violeta García on cello, recorded live at Jazzwerkstatt Bern in 2024: strings, winds and breath in a shifting collective language.

New compositions by Camila Nebbia for her sextet The Hanged One, with Julia Biłat on cello, Arne Braun on guitar and Andres Marino on electronics: intricate structures and open spaces with her tenor saxophone at the centre.
Lapilli
The saxophone and drums duo Sbatax, Bertrand Denzler and Antonin Gerbal, joined by Jean-Philippe Gross on electroacoustic device: a ferocious live set from Instants Chavirés where free jazz drive meets loops, feedback and crackling interference.
