SUMMARY:Aldrich/Bol/van Dijk/Valeriano\, & Ties Mellema and Robin Koek
DESCRIPTION:Electronic music\, saxophones\, keyboards\, and spoken word\nBy Ties Mellema & the new band Aldrich/Bol/van Dijk/Valeriano. Special guest Robin Koek. Our Canteen is open\, serving delicious food from 18:00 hrs onwards! \nGROND Bijdorpstraat 1\, 1096AP\, Amsterdam\nMusic starts at 20:00 – dinner will be served from 18:30\nTickets: regular €10 (or more) / discount €7 – available at the door or online here.\nDinner: + €12\,5 (RSVP required – Reserve by purchasing online) \nIvo Bol and Ties Mellema have played together for many years. Now they join forces with keyboardist and composer Tom Aldrich\, saxophonist Michiel van Dijk and spoken word artist Jeannine Valeriano. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nJeannine Valeriano is a writer\, singer\, spoken word performer and actress\, exploring the boundaries between language and music. \n \nMichiel van Dijk studied classical saxophone with Leo van Oostrom and jazz saxophone with John Ruocco at the Koninklijk Conservatorium in Den Haag. Michiel has played with almost all the renowned orchestras and ensembles in the Netherlands. Additionally\, he has collaborated with various theater productions and ensembles as a composer and arranger. \n \nTom Aldrich is the leader of the group Zolder Ellipsis and was a co-founder of the Four Bags. He has worked with artists such as a.o. Kurt Rosenwinkel\, Bang on a Can\, Jackie Cain. \n \nTaking on and then overcoming challenges and telling a story are always at the heart of Ties Mellema’s work. Whether it’s the false-polyphonic cello suites by Johann Sebastian Bach on baritone saxophone\, the monomaniac Gradus by Philip Glass or the extreme free jazz by his hero John Coltrane: Ties Mellema always goes in search of the boundaries of disciplines and the possibilities on his instrument. \n \nRobin Koek is an enterprising sound artist who aspires to nurture a new cognitive understanding of the world surrounding us mediated through art and education. These realities can be experienced as dynamic environments in which sensory feedback to the interactor is an essential component.

SUMMARY:Opening GROND Kitchen and Music of Rubakov trio + Moonshine
DESCRIPTION:AN EVENING WITH MUSIC OF RUBAKOV TRIO & MOONSHINE AND FOOD FROM OUR **NEW** KITCHEN!\nPrice for dinner sliding scale starting from € 12\,50\, \nPrice for concert sliding scale starting from € 5 \n\nPROGRAMME\n18:00 / GROND Kitchen Opening – A Taste of Things to Come\nGROND\, the new art space and collective at Nieuwe Bajesdorp\, is rooted in collectivity\, sustainability\, cross-pollination\, and process-based work. As part of this vision\, we are excited to introduce the GROND Kitchen\, a space where food becomes an extension of our artistic and communal practice. \nOn February 14th\, we invite you to join us for the official opening of the GROND Kitchen. From 18:00 onwards\, you are welcome to explore our food offering\, followed by a live concert later in the evening. (En feestje) \nWhat to Expect?\nWe will serve a diverse selection of small dishes\, offering you a taste of what GROND Kitchen has to offer. The evening will feature an assortment of vegetarian (mostly vegan) bites\, along with a soup & salad buffet inspired by Eastern-European cuisine\, in harmony with the music of the night. \nA Preview of the GROND Kitchen\nThis event is a first introduction to our culinary approach—an opportunity to share our vision through food and give you a glimpse of what’s to come. The chefs are Ramon Smit and Judith Baten (with the support of Lianne van Roekel). \nWe are looking forward to sharing this moment with you! Join us at GROND on February 14th at 18:00. \n \n20:00 / Music of Rubakov Trio & Moonshine\nWe offer you this evening improvisation and freewheeling poetic compositions and local country music! \nThe music of the Rubakov Trio is inspired by the work of the Soviet artist Alessandro Rubakov (Messina 1912 – Jrkoetsk 1981)\, Eric Dolphy\, Leo Wadada\, and artist Maria Basile. Hansko has been playing with Bas for decades in the phenomenal band Plan Kruutntoone. \n\nRuggero di Luisi (Palermo/amsterdam) drums and fruleta.\nHansko Visser (bonn/groningen) otwin guitar and rattles\nBas Alblas (haarlem/den andel) double bass\nLyrics by Hansko\, Wadada\, Luetzi and Brodsky\n\nThe music of Moonshine is a soulful country/bluegrass ‘met een lach en een traan’ (with a smile and a tear). From Hank Williams till Henk Wijngaard. Moonshine is Marita (voice\, guitar) Nico (banjo\, voice)\, Lucas (bass). \n \nAca Abujevic Rubakov (Giampilieri 1912- near Irkutsk 1981?) was the fruit of love
of an afro-russian sailor and the priests daughter in a sicilian village…
they met in the aftermath of the 1911 earth quake in Messina\, where
the russian fleet tried to help out\, Maria was a voluntary nurse\, and the little Allessandro (aca) was conceived. \nWhen he was born\, his father had been re-allocated to Russia already. Turning 17 he left the warmth of his Sicilian mothers home
to find traces of his father and his background. during his time in the soviet union
studied a few years at a leningrad art collective\, but then
dissapeared for decennia.\nit was known only much later (in the end of the eighties)\, that he
spent time with the Tengeri people near Irkutsk\, where his father Abu was said
to have died in a Stalin camp in the thirties\, and where Aca enventually fell ill.
He was taken care of by the local Shaman and spent his last year painting
on literally everything he could find. \nHansko met his work the first time he played in Vilnius with I Zimbra visiting a
semi legal art exhibition ( 1988!) where among the work of contemporay lithuanian artists\, some of the
found objects of A A Rubakov where shown.
Later\, while at work in Messina we found more drawings and dug op fragments of the story of his life.
With the help of people in Petersburg and Dusanbe (!) later paintings were retrieved.
To us \, the most intrigueing element of the work is the search of an artist for his (black) roots\, mixed with the siberian
shamanistic influences of his last dwelling place.
We try to combine it with our search for a musical background where we try to belong\, to feel at home. \n

SUMMARY:Livecode meetup
DESCRIPTION:Tickets: sliding scale 3 to 10 euro; at the door with PIN or cash \nJoin us for a last-minute informal live coding meetup in the new blackbox space of GROND hosted by Marije Baalman. We’re starting the evening off with some presentations about live coding projects that our community is currently working on. Later in the evening there is also space to have a from-scratch live coding jam. \nLivecoding is a practice where the act of writing code is an integral part of the live performance. The code written often generates output in sound or visuals\, but also into light\, dance or other media. By projecting the code for the audience to read\, the audience gets an insight into the normally hidden world of code. \nIf you are curious about code\, or just want to enjoy music\, visuals and more\, come and join! \nOrganised together with NL_CL (Netherlands Coding Live)  \n  \n

SUMMARY:De Ruimte presents Ruisburo
DESCRIPTION:So Long De Ruimte!\nAll things come to an end. After 11 years\, it’s time to say goodbye\, so long and farewell De Ruimte. We are looking forward to celebrating the legacy of De Ruimte with you in November and December. Join us as we explore the past and look to the future. \nWhile some things come to an end\, other people and places are popping up! The final edition of Ruisburo will take place at GROND\, a new art space and collective at the Nieuwe Bajesdorp.  Join us in discovering this new venue dedicated to experimental music\, on this evening featuring no less then 4 acts with live electronics\, sound experiments and improvisation. \nLINE-UP:\nZENO VAN DEN BROEK\nAIMÉE THERIOT\nCLARA DE ASIS\nDODÓ KIS & ORPHAX DUO \ninfo and tickets: https://www.cafederuimte.nl/agenda/ruisburo-at-grond/ \n \nDODÓ KIS \nDodó Kis is a Hungarian recorder and EWI (electric wind instrument) player\, composer and improviser with a soft spot for theater and electronics. She is a free-spirited player who finds her space in a variety of genres and styles\, from folk-jazz to alternative funk-rock\, from early music to free improvisation.Her most recent projects include the multimedia trio VEZEL and improvisational dance band The Big Kiss. In 2024 Dodó has been touring with her new solo program that incorporates all elements that are dear to her heart; recorders\, electronics\, performance and folk music from her home country. \n \nORPHAX\nAmsterdam based musician and trained drummer Sietse van Erve (Orphax) was introduced to electronic music in the early nineties. After playing around with tracker software and music with beats and melodies\, he started researching new sounds and new ways of working – always with an organic touch\, often incorporating sounds that would be regarded by others as errors or mistakes. Considering life isn’t without errors either. During this search\, he found his way into drone and microtonal music. As a result in his most recent work\, time and spatiality become more important factors. The goal of the music is for the listener to lose the sense of time and place. Live this is combined with room for improvisation. This way of working often results in an organic form of drone and minimal music. \n \nAIMÉE THERIOT\nAimée’s music draws from free improvisation\, ambient\, ASMR\, and soundscape recordings\, with a heavy dose of experimentation using live electronics\, e-cello\, guitar\, and voice. Her work has been presented at festivals and galleries internationally\, and her music has been released on labels such as Sofa Music\, Editions Verde\, Unheard Records\, and Relative Pitch Records amongst others. Aimée co-founded and facilitates The Social Music Club; open improvisation and sound experimentation sessions for musicians and non-musicians alike. \n \nCLARA DE ASÍS \nClara de Asís is a composer\, performer and producer who explores the correlations of acoustics\, spatiality and the praxis of attention. Her work accounts for material and sociopolitical relationality in the processes of engaging with sound\, and is grounded in the elasticity of perception. She incorporates electronics and sound synthesis to idiosyncratic combinations of diverse materials\, found objects and traditional instrumentation. \nHer compositions\, often developed collaboratively\, juxtapose structural precision to areas of indeterminacy\, drawing from an interest in experimental intonation\, timbral research and the junction of rational and irrational systems. \n \nZENO VAN DEN BROEK \nZeno van den Broek is a composer and artist who explores the intricate relationship between humans and technology. Through his audiovisual creations\, he delves into how our interactions with fabricated environments shape our experiences. Van den Broek’s works challenge the conventional understanding of how we perceive and engage with technology-infused spaces. By creating intense and thought-provoking experiences\, he disrupts our habitual consumption of these spaces and interactions\, prompting us to venture beyond our comfort zones and actively explore new possibilities.

At that time they played a flute and a few laptops. A lot has happened since. It has been tremendously wonderful to meet again and play together. This GROND show is their first duo appearance after quite some time. This time they will play flute\, a couple of laptops and more electronic devices and gadgets. \n \nConvex Stream is a composition by Thomas Myrmel\, with excerpts from John Ashbery’s Self-portrait in a Convex Mirror. It is perfomed by Thomas Myrmel (Trombone/electronica)\, Dodó Kis (recorder/effects) and Sato Endo (dance).\nThomas Myrmel (1982\, USA) is a composer\, performer and multifaceted artist. He is a co-founder of composer collective Monotak and the musicians organisation Splendor.\nDodó Kis is a Hungarian recorder and EWI player\, based in Amsterdam\, and curator of the Nebular sessions\nSato Endo is a maker of interdisciplinary performances\, working independently and project-based at theaters\, art venues and at various sites. Sato often incorporates video with choreography. \n \n \n\nChristina Viola Oorebeek\n\nPeRiOd pOiNt blAnK (2016\, revision 2021)\nfor Fixed-Media and Kinetic Collage\n\nOrignally written for live performances of DUO VERSO\, Stefan Gerritsen\,guitar and Matthijs Koene\, panflutes\, with fixed-media and video\, I decided to make a music video-only version of ‘PeRiOd pOiNt blAnK ‘ in 2021.  This incorporates recordings of DUO VERSO and the fixed-media\, but with a visual concentration on the Crip-walk by ‘Ghost’ and added electronic materials and transformations to the music.\nStarting as a stylized set of foot moves spelling out neighborhood territories and the name of the Crips\, a street gang in South Central\, Los Angeles\, the Crip Walk gained the status of a staple of hip-hop dance\, and went viral among street movers over the globe as the Clownwalk\, the Crownwalk.  The elegance of its movements is contrasted by the harsh realities of gang life in a megalopolis\, something man often combines – for example\, making beautifully decorative armour and weapons to go to war in…\n\nsomewhat incongruous __ raps and new sounds\, tv statics and shifting temple textures\, from territorial street walk to dance suite\n\n\nhttps://www.christinaoorebeek.com/\n\n\n\n\n\nRicardo Huisman – “virtual (kitch)en damast” – slow animation with soundscape (8:01 min.)\, 2022\n\n\n\n\nUit de serie: “virtual textiles”\, (virtuele) tactiele collages van verschillende media\, materialen incl. wollen dekens als digitale fotowerken of als slow animations al dan niet met sound- scapes\, met verschillende historische verwijzingen\, (actuele) thema’s.

SUMMARY:'Oost\, West\, Thuis weg...' & 'Spiraling on.. and on..' // Janne Groen en Wytze Minne de Swart
DESCRIPTION:  \n-For English see below- \nDans / Muziek \nwith Janne Groen en Wytze Minne de Swart \nGROND\nBijdorpstraat 1\,\n1096AP\, Amsterdam\n \n16:00:00 (doors: 15:30)\nTickets: €10 aanbevolen\, sliding scale \nEen gedeelde middag met danseres en maker Janne Groen en componist\, saxofonist en GROND-lid Wytze Minne de Swart.\nDe voorstelling bestaat uit twee gedeeltes: \nOost\, West\, Thuis Weg… is de titel van de work-in-progress voorstelling van danseres en maker Janne Groen\, over de zoektocht naar (h)erkenning van haar Indische identiteit en het verlangen naar verbinding met haar vaders geboortegrond. Janne brengt dit persoonlijke proces tot uiting in dans\, spoken word en in samenspel met gitarist Seyoum Yuno.   \nJanne is met haar voorstelling onderdeel van het Nieuwe Makers Festival RRReuring 2025\, georganiseerd door Podium Mozaïek. In augustus 2024 heeft zij hier vooronderzoek voor mogen doen tijdens het Zomerlab. Ze zal vanaf december verder repeteren voor de première\, die plaatsvindt tijdens het festival in februari 2025.  \n‘Spiraling on.. and on..’ is een verzameling van nieuwe werken van saxofonist en componist Wytze Minne de Swart\, die voor deze selectie van nieuwe werken inspiratie heeft gevonden in het korte verhaal ‘de Bibliotheek van Babel’ van Jorge Luis Borges. Waarin een magisch maar realistische\, oneindige\, spiraalvormige bibliotheek wordt beschreven vol met metaforen uit het menselijk bestaan. Wytze heeft deze vormen als muzikale basis genomen voor de stukken en hieraan thematieken uit het dagelijks leven aan getracht te verbinden. \n___ \nA shared afternoon with dancer and maker Janne Groen and Composer\, Saxophone player and GROND-member Wytze Minne de Swart. The performance consists of two separate parts: \nOost\, West\, Thuis Weg… is the title of the work-in-progress performance by dancer and maker Janne Groen\, about the (re)search into recognition of her bicultural identity and the desire for connection with her father’s roots. Janne expresses this personal process in dance\, spoken word and in collaboration with guitarist Seyoum Yuno. \nJanne’s performance is part of the New Makers Festival RRReuring 2025\, organized by Podium Mozaïek. In August 2024\, she was able to do a pre-research for this performance during Zomerlab. She will continue rehearsing from December on for the premiere\, which will take place during the festival in February 2025. \nSpoken language during performance: Dutch \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpiraling on.. and on.. is a collection of new works by saxophonist and composer Wytze Minne de Swart. For this selection of new pieces\, he drew inspiration from the short story The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges\, which describes a magical yet realistic\, infinite\, spiral-shaped library filled with metaphors reflecting human existence. Wytze has used these forms as the musical foundation for the compositions\, aiming to connect them with themes drawn from everyday life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Concert: ANTHANO\, Seijiro Murayama\, Chris Pitsiokos
DESCRIPTION:Improvisation / Contemporary music / Electronic music\nw/ANTHANO\, Seijiro Murayama & Chris Pitsiokos\nGROND Bijdorpstraat 1\, 1096AP\, Amsterdam\n20:00 (doors: 19:30)\nTickets: €10  recommended\, sliding scale (at the door or Online) \nOn Saturday 19 October\, GROND is welcoming to Amsterdam the duo ANTHANO\, Seijiro Murayama\, and Chris Pitsiokos.\nANTHANO consists of the musicians Anton Lambert and Thanos Polymeneas Liontiris\, based in Belgium and in Greece respectively. This October they meet for a tour in the low lands\, bringing their halldorophone and live-electronics improvisation sets to Amsterdam. The same evening\, we have the pleasure to host the France-based Japanese percussionist and voice improviser Seijiro Murayama and Chris Pitsiokos\, saxophonist and improviser based in New York and Berlin. For this event\, Murayama and Pitsiokos are taking GROND’s stage as a duo. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nANTHANO is newly found duo\, a collaboration between Thanos Polymeneas Liontiris (GR) and Anton Lambert (BE). They first crossed paths in Athens in the fall of 2023 through their shared passion for experimental and innovative sound. With Anton’s practice in live electronics and Thanos’ expertise of feedback-augmented instruments and electronics\, particularly the halldorophone\, they started improvising together. This creative synergy sparked a series of recordings\, weaving diverse sonic worlds into feedback loops and giving birth to a new album set to release in spring 2025 on the Italian label Kohlhaas. Ahead of the album’s release\, Anton and Thanos will bring their soundscapes to life in a series of live performances across Belgium and The Netherlands in October 2024. These concerts are a dive into the realm of improvisation and sound experimentation\, where haunting field recordings\, intricate feedback loops\, and deconstructed textures create an immersive auditory experience. Don’t miss the chance to witness this collaboration as it unfolds in real-time. \n \nSeijiro Murayama was born in 1957 in Nagasaki\, Japan. He has been working on improvisation since 1980. He uses voice and percussion and tries to apply his practice of improvisation to other fields of creative activities. Graduated from Tokyo University of Foreign Studies. Eiichi Chino\, Masahiro Nishie\, Toshihiko Izutsu\, Fumio Koizumi\, Shuzo Kuki\, then French Literature + Philosophy through skew reading\, in particular\, Blanchot. Their influence seems to have determined his activities’ direction since then. In 1982\, he toured the United States with Keiji Haino\, and during his stay in New York just after that\, he encountered theradical\, provoking music of John Zorn\, a lower Manhattan emerging force. After coming back to Japan\, through the explosive sound trio Absolute Null Punkt\, under the influence of Akira Aida\, Kenichi Takeda\, Masami Akita\, the magazine Transonic\, musicians Derek Bailey\, Kaoru Abe\, etc.\, he embarked publicly on an exploration of improvisation. Although he temporarily refrained from performing due to some doubts about the styles of the first generation of improvisers he had followed\, he restarted playing\, thanks to the movements such as Onkyo in Japan in the 90’s. In 99\, he had an opportunity to live and work in France\, which changed his way of thinking and playing\, he began to concentrate in particular on solo improvisation. Today\, he mainly performs in solo\, duo and trio formats. As for collaborations with other fields’ artists\, he notes that even if he has experienced quite a lot of sorts of collaborations with dance and theater\, his current interest is more towards words\, images and sounds. \n \nChris Pitsiokos (b. 1990) is a New York/Berlin-based saxophonist\, composer and improviser. While Pitsiokos does not concern himself with genre\, broadly speaking his music falls under the umbrella of experimentalism\, including noise\, improvised music\, experimental jazz\, free jazz\, noise rock\, new music\, minimal music\, drone and art rock. As a soloist he has developed a unique voice on the alto saxophone: his expansion of the instrument’s vocabulary has served to multiply its emotive and formal possibilities. He has recorded over 30 albums as a leader or co-leader.
