Swiss pianist Malcolm Braff plays with a rhythmic complexity – influenced by a childhood in Brazil and Senegal – that adds further layers to those of the drummers and Carlo Mombelli, bassist and composer extraordinaire with collaborative credits as wide-ranging as Lee Konitz, Miriam Makeba and Simphiwe Dana, fits in beautifully. With the lyrical sax of Norwegian Atle Nymo on top, expect a mind-blowingly beautiful performance." DSG Auditorium Sunday 30 June 21.00 R60 -- Mombelli & van Vliet Rus Nerwich (sax), Jeroen van Vliet (piano – Netherlands), Carlo Mombelli (bass), Kesivan Naidoo (drums) "The American Bass Player magazine writes of Carlo Mombelli: ‘his latest release shows off a musician in full, with his command of the instrument so secure his virtuosic moments fade into unexplainably delightful sonic pastiche... Avant-garde bass-focused jazz composition has rarely sounded so gorgeous.’ He will be collaborating with Jeroen van Vliet, described in the Dutch press as ‘a master of nuance... whose playing is enchanting, emotional and full of fantasy... With his silent moments, his way to use suspense, the alternation of melody and rhythm and the logic of his harmony, Van Vliet is an important figure within the Dutch improvising music scene.’ Mombelli and van Vliet are two unusual composers on a sound design journey."
