Penumbra - Album Launch Concert
Map Studio Cafe, NW5 3DU , [Venue Details]Sam Norris- alto sax/flute
Ashkan Layegh- piano
Exploring the notions of “collective memory formation” in “live-action music making”— Ashkan Layegh and Sam Norris ask whether improvisation and composition can be “doppelgängers”.
Ashkan Layegh is an Iranian composer/improviser/multi-instrumentalist and visual artist concerned with systematic methods of cataloguing chaos and taxonomical classification of encyclopaedic data. His music has been performed by his own ensembles, including the Phemo Quartet, at such venues as Kings Place and Southbank Centre as well as by the Amsterdam Sinfonietta and Septura Brass, Chroma Ensemble and Temporal Harmonies Inc.
Hailing from Cambridge, UK, Sam's love of jazz was ignited when he heard Coltrane's A Love Supreme aged 12.
Since then, he has been fascinated with luminaries of improvised music such as Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk and Lee Konitz. Sam's passion for jazz is combined with an equal interest in contemporary classical and folk music. This melting pot of influences has led him to develop a distinctive improvisational and compositional language.
