| sinopsis | Following the huge success of her performance at Gouveia Art Rock 2024, Hedvig Mollestad is back at the festival with a different trio. In Weejuns, the principles of long and composed excerpts were left aside, leaving behind an open door to an immense universe of shimmering interaction and picturesque structures, a sense of lightness where the concept of time is disruptive and the musicians converge in a great trilogy. However, underneath it all lies a fascination with riffs and vigorous pulsations, associating not only the grandiose sound of Terje Rypdal, but also the transition between the 60s and 70s, from the eras of Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" and of the Mahavishnu Orchestra. |
