Join us for a concert evening with Austrian jazz guitarist Harri Stojka who will be joined by Herbert Berger on the saxophone, Peter Strutzenberger on the bass and Sigi Meier on the brush snare.
About the Concert
Harri Stojka will present his current focus in the formation ACOUSTIC DRIVE together with his partners Herbert Berger (sax), Peter Strutzenberger (bass) and Sigi Meier (brush snare) as part of a side event to the current exhibition at the ACFNY, “What Should I be Afraid of? Roma Artist Ceija Stojka“. In this formation, Harri Stojka ‘s style meets Django Reinhardt and his musical universe. As a principle for this, the guitarist outlines the approach of ACOUSTIC DRIVE as “modern jazz soloism” with “Acoustic Gypsy Sound“. What these words characterize succinctly, transcends in concert the limitations of a pure tribute, Stojka and his partners go into the fullness of their instrumental expression, let their musicality speak not only through the material of Reinhardt, but move just as dynamically with the original compositions of Harri Stojka, the “drive” in the band name may be taken literally and quickly captivates the audience.
