THREE FALL (D)
Lutz Streun – tenor sax, bass clarinet
Til Schneider – trombone
Sebastian Winne – drums
The threesome Three Fall met in funk bands and studied at conservatories in Cologne and Arnhem. Without a bass or a harmony instrument the young German trio ventures into the unknown, resulting in a remarkably fresh music. What stands out is trombonist Til Schneider's multiphonics,making him a new member of the strong German trombone tradition (Albert Mangelsdorff, Conrad and Johannes Bauer, Nils Wogram).

Paul Rogers – double bass
Fred van Hove – piano
Wilbert De Joode – double bass
'B3B – a trio in which the piano is sandwiched between two basses; the final B should be in reverse, but that doesn't work on this keyboard.'

He is flanked by Britsh bassist Paul Rogers, who played with pianists like Keith Tippett and Sophia Domancich, and Wilbert de Joode, Michiel Braam's regular bassist.

PAUL BERNER BAND (US/NL)
Michael Moore – alto sax, clarinet
Peter Tiehuis, Ed Verhoef – guitar
Paul Berner – double bass
Clarinetist and alto saxophonist Michael Moore (ICP, Available Jelly) clearly feels at home in the Paul Berner Band. His melancholic solos perfectly fit Berner's relaxed mix of jazz and Amrricana. In the eighties bassist Paul Berner, like Moore also from California, played with the Lionel Hampton Band (with Arnett Cobb in its ranks) and Monty Alexander before moving to Amsterdam. In his music he seems to yearn for the prairie.

Gerard Ammerlaan – bass guitar, Jeroen van Olphen – drums
Gerard Ammerlaans new band ARKHO makes exciting music. Unusual compositions are mixed with jazzrock type improvisations. The ARKHO sound wth three electric guitars sometimes reminds one of King Crimson, but this band goes further. Bassist and composer Gerard Ammerlaan made his mark in the Noodband, Greetje Bijma Quintet and his own formations like Ammerlaans Quartet/Octet.

Ben van Gelder composed a special trio for the SummerJazzCycleTour featuring pianist Harmen Franje and bassist Clemens van der Feen. Has Ben van Gelder been able to deepen his Art Pepper-like sound in the New York jazz clubs, or does he sound completely different now?

Extremely loud, but at a certain moment it gets too heavy, and the volume is taken down a little... well, just for a few seconds.' KNALPOT: 'It's live very different from the CD. We have a soundman who makes sure the sound doesn't hurt, but that the music feels all right.'

Paolo Angeli – prepared Sardinian guitar
“The Sardinian guitar is made in Sicily...and prepared in Bologna.” Paolo Angeli moved from Sardinia to Bologna, where he met a flourishing music scene. Paolo Angeli started preparing his guitar with hammers and small ventilators, thus developing his present instrument, with which he has hooked on to the international avant garde scene (Elliott Sharp, Fred Frith, Evan Parker). And his music? It is of an enchanting beauty.
