Is there a music that can be understood in any culture on this planet? Is it possible to co-compose a music from basic elements which are valid in most musical cultures? What are such basic elements? Do fundamental musical particles even exist and what could they be? Driven by such questions, Metaculture created an improvised music that builds upon basic musical elements and on the individual musical histories of the ensemble members. The ensemble spirit is fed by a common interest in all kinds of music, in listening thoroughly and in improvising “freely”, without relying on structuring concepts. The process of this collaboration was accompanied by discussions and by listening together to world or improvised music, with the aim to be inspired to break out of the usual improvisational routine. The music is put together mostly out of simple elements and the improvising built on the musicians listening. With such conditions the sextet’s playing felt natural from our first encounter.
