Part of the ECM Live week
Nik Bärtsch piano & fender rhodes
Kaspar Rast drums
Björn Meyer bass
Sha bass/contrabass clarinets
Andi Pupato percussion
Ritual groove music or zen-funk, jazz or not jazz, Swiss composer and pianist Nik Bärtsch's funk quintet Ronin reaches both mind and body. Ronin was founded in 2001 with Nik Bärtsch, Kaspar Rast (drums), Björn Meyer (bass), Andi Pupato (percussion) and Sha (bass- and contrabass clarinet). Rhythm patterns are complex yet clearly connect to the dancefloor, while the melodic structure imposes layer upon layer without losing the music's essence. Bartsch is a visionary musician and it's high time that British audiences had another chance to hear him in action.
