Bunte Luft Trio is an improvisation group from Hamburg that focuses on the sonic interactions of Đàn Bầu, baritone saxophone and modular synthesizer. All three instruments are rooted in completely different genres. The musicians use this peculiarity as a springboard to create their characteristic sound. Tam Thi Pham (VN), Jana De Troyer (BE) and Jan Wegmann (DE) bring their own artistic backgrounds to the table, moving through different atmospheres that take the audience into interplanetary deserts and microscopic forests.

APIACEAE – Album
Apiaceae is a family of flowering plants, characterised by their branched umbels, clusters of flowers arranged like little umbrellas. Just as this plant family, our improvised music consists of intersections, where spontaneous decisions shape a new path every time. Each choice makes the music to spread out more and more in its unique way, creating a new sonic world for every species.
