news | Kan Mikami two-night residency

Kan Mikami returns to Café Oto for a two-night residency. Kan has been a singular figure in the Japanese underground since the early seventies performing his unique Japanese Blues. This will be the third time Kan has played at Café Oto the first being his mind blowing three-day residency in September last year followed by a one night appearance in December. It’s hard to believe that prior to those performances Kan had never played in London.

Kan will be performing for two nights both solo and in trio formations with some of the most exciting free players around spanning different generations and approaches including John Edwards, Steve Noble, Alex Neilson and Guillaume Viltard.

MON 30 MAR ‘09 • 8PM • £9 / £15 (two-day pass) - KAN MIKAMI + ALAN WILKINSON / JOHN EDWARDS / STEVE NOBLE - TWO DAY RESIDENCY – DAY 1

news | Tribute to Samuel Beckett

«  Et si je n’allais pas en ligne rigoureusement droite, à force de tourner en rond, du moins je ne tournais pas en rond, et c’était déjà quelque chose »

Mercredi 25 mars ‘09 à 20h30

Concert de soutien à la librairie Grand Guignol

Samuel Beckett est un de mes auteurs favoris. Une constance frisant l’opiniâtreté, une écriture qui se défait progressivement du superflu… font écho à ma propre démarche de musicien. Son sens de l’humour nous manque. Il est mort il y a vingt ans. Je doute qu’il ait été grand amateur de musique improvisée, mais ce concert sera une discrète façon de lui rendre hommage. Outre ma contrebasse, il y aura là Lionel Garcin (saxophones) et Charles Fichaux (batterie) et… plein de livres !



« And if I did not go in a rigorously straight line, with my system of going in a circle, at least I did not go in a circle, and that was something. »

Wednesday 25 march ’09 Lyon 8.30pm

Supporting ‘Grand Guignol’ independant bookshop 

A personnal tribute to Samuel Beckett, one of my favourite author, who died 20 years ago. With Lionel Garcin on sax & Charles Fichaux on drums.

news | “Marée-Lumière”

vendredi 27 mars 09 - 8.30 pm- Lyon / France

à bord de “La Vorgine ET MA Découverte” amarrée au niveau du 9 avenue Leclerc Lyon 7

with Mireille Antoine (voc) & Yvan Dendievel (clarinettes). Text from Jean Morisset.

Lecture musicale improvisée, rassemblant sur scène une voix, une contrebasse, une clarinette. Sur un texte du poète-géographe canadien Jean Morisset, nous déambulons sur les rives du Saint Laurent, le long fleuve qui traverse le Québec. Un écriture sensible, sensuelle, où le marcheur renoue un à un les fils perdus qui le reliaient au territoire… Cet ouvrage est paru en 2008 chez l’éditeur bruxellois L’Atelier du Héron, qui est membre de l’Institut International de Géopoétique.
