A New Formation in Free Improvisation – Surge Quartet with gabby fluke-mogul, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Keefe Jackson, and Chris Bré.
Four extraordinary musicians from the international improvisation scene come together for the first time in a unique quartet: gabby fluke-mogul (violin), Fred Lonberg-Holm (cello & electronics), Keefe Jackson (saxophones & clarinets), and Chris Bré (saxophones & clarinets) create a sonic world filled with spontaneity, energy, and unexpected turns—an evening of musical exploration and intricate beauty.
Each musician brings a distinctive voice to the ensemble: fluke-mogul is a master of expressive textures on the violin, moving seamlessly between raw intensity and delicate nuances. Lonberg-Holm fuses his cello with electronics, expanding the instrument’s possibilities into uncharted sonic territory. Jackson is known for his powerful tone and melodic finesse, while Bré explores the depths of saxophone and clarinet with an ever-surprising sense of space and dynamics.
Without predefined structures or compositions, the music unfolds in the moment, ranging from fragile, intricate passages to explosive, high-energy interactions. It is a dialogue of tension, spontaneity, and boundless creativity, drawing the audience into an immersive and unpredictable experience. This tour is sponsored in part by Blue Stem Jazz.
