9:00 GRANDE FINALE
members of PANTET Deborah Felmeth, Steve Budington, Kareem Khalifa, Ron Rost and Terry Simpkins are joining the fray.
Isabelle Duthoit studied classical music in the CNSM de Lyon with Jacques Di Donato, receiving her degrees and first clarinet prize in 1995. Soon she focused on contemporary music and has since been collaborating with several composers. As an improviser, she initiated projects like Triolid, Trio Canape, Fogo (the rock band), “Bouge” (with Luc Ex and Johannes Bauer), and Where Is The Sun (with J.Di Donato J. Tilbury). Between 1995 and 2005, she directed "Fruits de Mhere" a festival for experimental music, dance, and cinema in collaboration with Jacques Di Donato. Since 2000, Duthoit has developed a particular and personal way of singing, connected to primitive sounds and screams, a voice before language. In 2008, she was a resident at the Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto (Japan) and she worked with Nô and Bunraku singers. She is a member of Hiatus, a band for improvisation and contemporary music and works with theater and dance.
Franz Hautzinger studied Jazz at the Art University in Graz from 1981 to 1983 until lip palsy forced him to take a six year break from trumpeting. After moving to Vienna, in 1989 he started to explore the trumpet in his very own and un-academic way. Soon attached to the circles around Christoph Cech and Christian Mühlbacher, Hautzinger became one of Austria’s most prolific experimental musicians. He has worked with many international avant-garde musicians and has directed a multitude of his own ensembles. Since developing his own style he has collaborated with musicians like Keiji Haino, Hamid Drake, Jamaldeen Tacuma, Elliot Sharp, Otomo Yosihide , Butch Morris, Lou Reed, Zeitkratzer, Derek Bailey, and Phil Niblock. Through the years, Hautzinger has developed his quarter-tone trumpet to a whole new kind of expression, where he elicits bizarre sounds and noises. In his solo performance, he creates adventurous soundscapes that often sounds more like electronic music than a trumpet.
ENSEMBLE V
Trumpeter-composer Arthur Brooks is one of the unsung heroes of the new music. In his 40+ year career he has collaborated with such legendary figures as Bill Dixon, Cecil Taylor, Sonny Sharrock, Alan Silva, and Frank Wright. For over 20 years he taught alongside Dixon in the Black Music Division at Bennington College.
PANTET is a Vermont based musicians collective dedicated to improvised music.
