about
Mola Sylla voice, m'bira, xalam, percussion | Oscar Jan Hoogland electric clavichord | Frank Rosaly drums, percussion
Mola Sylla, Oscar Jan Hoogland and Frank Rosaly perform The Triangle. Rosaly has been involved in the improvised and experimental music community since 2001 when he became an integral part of Chicago’s musical fabric, navigating a fine line between the vibrant improvised music, experimental, rock and jazz communities. Like Rosaly, singer and percussionist Mola Sylla is in many ways a musical explorer. Born and raised in Dakar, Senegal. He grew up in the tradition of the griots. Griots play conveying stories – sometimes decorated with music, theater and dance – an important role in the culture in West Africa. His rhythm and melodic compositions differ from the western agreed schedules and provide surprising twists. Oscar Jan Hoogland is the sound of Amsterdam in person. He is an instant composer and inventor of his own instrument by putting a clavichord, a keyboard instrument from the 17th century, on 220 Volt electricity. As the last student of the late pianist, composer and improvisor Misha Mengelberg he tears like a tornado through the Amsterdam jazz and impro scene.
A Dakar griot singer – An Amsterdam improviser – A Chicago jazz drummer. That’s the triangle of authenticity the shapes the un-compromised music of Sylla | Hoogland | Rosaly.
