Johanna Elina Sulkunen invokes imaginary landscapes with her voice, electronics, and a stellar ensemble on the new album TERRA. With the second part of her trilogy with the solo project Sonority, the Finnish experimental vocalist creates a global vision while being trapped in Copenhagen and invites the listener to question our modern life and its often destructive relation to nature.
Having made her mark as an adventurous jazz vocalist and an accomplished composer- improviser. Johanna has worked with such artists as Tomasz Stańko and Axel Dörner and has received critical praise in the vocal ensemble IKI as well as her own solo work. With Sonority, she creates a visionary universe of her own. A universe where her background in jazz and improvisation is definitely present, but where inspirations from electroacoustic music, minimalism, and ambient can also be heard.

Lars Bech Pilgaard – guitar, effects
Lars Bech Pilgaard har igennem et årti gjort sit bemærket med sit energiske og altid sonisk afsøgende guitarspil. Om det er som sideman med Bisse, Anja Jacobsen eller i nogle af Pilgaards egne ensembler SVIN, Klimaforandringer eller Slowburn, er man aldrig i tvivl om guitarens ejermand. Lars Bech PIlgaards musik befinder sig i grænselandet mellem støj, sakral nerve og organisk improvisation, men Pilgaards musikalske udtryk er i sin grundform foranderligt og han dyrker betingelsesløst rum med plads til det absolut abstrakte og det perverst konkrete. I 2013 udgav Pilgaard den anmelderroste solo-debut I want you to be around me som en støjende kærlighedserklæring til guitarens uanede muligheder. I 2015 gjorde han de vestjyske cykelstier usikre med en ultra-lokal solo-turne på cykel og udgav senest i 2018 en 7´tommer solovinyl med buespil og tapping på akustisk guitar der ligeledes udgjorde soundtracket til kunstfilmen FAVNTAGER, hvori Pilgaard spiller hovedrollen i fuldt skrud på et eventyrligt barokslot. De seneste par år har Bech Pilgaards solokoncerter divergeret med fuzz-mættet, håndledssmertende shredding, tålmodige dronetrav samt mere eklektiske hybrid-udforskninger med flere instrumenter og større lydbilleder. Med andre ord: forvent intet og alt når en af DKs mest originale guitarister giver sit bud på et musikalsk øjebliksbillede på dansk eksperimenterede musik anno 2022.
