Céline Voccia - Abîme

Abîme, the new album from the Céline Voccia  Trio, showcases the formidable talents of three of the finest musicians on the Free Jazz scene today.

Pianist Voccia is joined by Jan Roder on bass and Michael Griener on drums, and together they create a remarkable sound world that integrates the spontaneity of Free Jazz with the structures of modern composition and the performance practices of the avant-garde.

Céline Voccia is a french pianist, composer and improviser in the Free Jazz scene in Berlin. She studied classical piano at the Geneva Conservatory and jazz music and improvisation in Paris and Berlin. Her music is a fusion of the jazz vernacular with classical piano technique, thus culminating in an abstraction of contemporary music with Free Jazz. Having been influenced by the likes of Olivier Messiaen and Toru Takemitsu, Céline Voccia belongs to the circles of New European Improvisation.
