AUKSO x Hubert Zemler - NOSPR

Hubert Zemler

An extremely versatile musician: percussionist, composer, and improviser; graduate of the Chopin Academy (now University) of Music in Warsaw; bronze medal winner in the Delphic Games in South Korea (in the category of solo percussion). Along with classical education he developed an interest in jazz. He is now highly regarded both as a performer of contemporary classical music (works by Helmut Lachenmann, Steve Reich, Terry Riley, Tadeusz Wielecki, Zygmunt Krauze, and Tomasz Sikorski) and jazz (collaborations with Zbigniew Namysłowski, Wojciech Staroniewicz, and Jan Smoczyński). He has appeared with jazz, world music, rock, blues, and pop musicians, as well as electronic music artists. He is a member of Hashtag Ensemble and LAM trio. In his solo projects he expands the sonic and performative possibilities of the percussion set. He builds his musical narration out of elements of improvised, experimental, and free jazz music while retaining its sensitivity and expressive power. His solo albums explore the borderland between the avant-garde, electronics, and ethnic music. He also composer for feature and animated films.

Duration of the concert: approx. 80 minutes
