Marcos Della Rocha, Hosha

master uitvoerende muziek - jazz/pop

NL

Hosha was formed originally for a multimedia concert, a project that combined animation loops with live free improvised music. Since then, the improvised material was organized into fixed compositions while still keeping room for instant creation, such as a music journey with a few pre-agreed check-points in which any possible way could be taken to connect them.

The quartet explores the unusual formation of tenor and alto saxophones, Warre van de Putte and Werend Van Den Bossche, guitar by Nicolas Van Belle and drums/percussion by Marcos Della Rocha to search for a fresh way to play jazz, with influences of traditional masters such as Miles Davis and John Coltrane with a hint of modern exponents like Brian Blade and The Fellowship Band, Omer Avital, Avishai Cohen, James Farm and Ari Hoenig. Free music artists such as Bobo Stenson Trio, Jim Black, Paul Motian Trio, Jakob Bro Trio are a great source of inspiration for the group too.

With a non-bass formation as well live manipulated electronic effects, Hosha invites the audience to embrace the contrasting music, opposing grounded and confortable moments with more instable and tense passages, all immersed in the co-creative atmosphere.
