Anemochore

Founded in 2016 by violist Frantz Loriot and bassist Daniel Studer, Anemochore also features Sebastian Strinning on tenor saxophone and bass clarinet and Benjamin Brodbeck on drums.

The quartet's Creative Sources album Suites and Seeds (CS593) was recorded at WIM in Zürich on 24 October 2018. Its pieces form suites around changing instrumental relationships and extended techniques.

The project approaches improvisation as collective form-building, with the voices of the viola, reeds, double bass and drums passing material between melodic, textural and percussive roles.
