Скачать или смотреть LIVE AT AULA: BOI AKIH DUO #1

Guitarist and composer Niels Brouwer and vocalist and lyricist Monica Akihary, the winner of 2023’s Boy Edgar prize, the most important Dutch award for jazz and improvised music, have formed the heart of the ensemble BOI AKIH since 1997. For more than twenty years, boundless curiosity has driven them to ever new experiments and discoveries. Starting from guitar and voice, BOI AKIH works on exciting and ground-breaking repertoire that reveals the layering of different musical traditions.

.

BOI AKIH's unique sound emerges in the constant interaction between the musicians and the sources from which they draw. This sound, at once unconventional and accessible, always surprisingly new and yet completely recognizable, mixes acoustic sounds and electronic soundscapes with the versatile, warm voice of Monica Akihary, who sometimes sings in English and sometimes in Haruku, the language of her father's island in the Moluccas.
In BOI AKIH's musical projects, their deep, personal musical explorations result in a harmonious blending of seemingly incompatible sounds, rhythms and tonalities.
