Rough Diamonds - Andrew Moreno Trio / INNEC

Rough Diamonds

The Amsterdam Conservatory is bursting with young, passionate musicians who are developing all kinds of interesting initiatives. From late May to late June, our stage will be the setting for these representatives of the new jazz generation.

Andrew Moreno Trio

Andrew Moreno combines intricate composed structures with the freedom of improvisation. His compositions draw from diverse sources: visual art, the harmonic concepts of Messiaen and Schönberg, and spontaneous melodic exploration combine to form a unique, recognizable sound. Andrew Moreno on guitar, Aniol Torrents on double bass, and Ludvig Søndergaard on drums.

INNEC

INNEC is an Amsterdam-based quartet that takes its name from Wassily Kandinsky's concept of 'Inner Necessity': the urge for purity in music, free from conventions but rooted in the present. The four musicians from Spain, Slovenia, Sweden, and Denmark operate on the boundary between contemporary music and experimental jazz, where rhythmically and melodically complex compositions combine with free improvisation. Marcus Warnheim on saxophone, Alexander Sever on vibraphone, Ignacio Pinto on double bass, and Ludvig Søndergaard on drums.
