On April 8, there will be a special concert highlight in the theater hall of the Künstlerverein Malkasten when the duo wehnermehner will play followed by the Geysir Quartet in the new event series "Musik im Malkasten".
In their interplay, the two Cologne musicians of the duo "wehnermehner" "solder" the boundaries of their own music apart and back together again. Max Wehner on trombone and Raissa Mehner on electric guitar have set themselves the task of moving as freely as possible in their compositions and improvisations while remaining as close to each other as possible. Together, they become entangled in fanatical rules and misunderstood jazz, untangling communicative knots with the help of conciliatory short-circuiting.
Founded in 2022 by pianist and composer Hajo Wiesemann, the Geysir Quartet stems from a vision of chamber music that moves seamlessly between genres; an ensemble that plays chamber music with a classical sound aesthetic, but grooves like a band. The Geysir Quartet's sound is initially "classical" - unusual but familiar and almost addictive. The music - original compositions by all four musicians and a few selected "covers" from Nirvana to Dolly Parton - and the humorous and spontaneous stage performance are immediately captivating. Chamber music on the move!
