Naakt in Noord: Bandgladesh

Sunday, September 27, sauna 18-23h, concert 20.30

This summer, we light up the sauna every last Sunday of the month. On these evenings, there’s always something to see, whether it’s live music, poetry, storytelling or short film. On September 27, Bandgladesh pays us a visit.

Mutual admiration and profound respect can be felt in the sessions of these three musicians in an unusual trio formation. Their sound features instant compositions and intuitive improvisations that invite the listeners to enter in an internal state of imagination; nothing is changing but everything changes.

In their concerts, a circular interplay is revealed by the on-going dialogue of two handpans that build simple and long melodic progressions that evolve organically creating rhythmical series of signals and responses. In the middle of this progressive atmosphere a trumpet in its subtle virtuosity gathers the oscillation enhancing it into a collective flow. Now the three of them manage to create a pulse that continuously gets refreshed with invisible harmonies and secondary layers while maintaining the feeling of a never-ending voyage.

Like every last Sunday of the month, the sauna will be steaming hot. So bring your towel and bathrobe. Entrance to the sauna is €6. Concert will be around 20.30. We collect donations for the artists.
Parojo Island Food will serve a vegetarian meal from 18:00 onwards.
