ABOUT
What If We Align Our Breath - Album Release Tour South Africa
Pioneering Swiss trombonist and composer Andreas Tschopp marries contemporary jazz
with South African kudu horns and homemade ocarinas, creating a record quite unlike
anything you've heard before. What if We Align Our Breath disregards the curvature of
borders, genre, and time itself - tugging a thread through the history of wind
instrumentation with ghostly agility.
Together with his album co-producer, Johannesburg-based bassist and producer Shane
Cooper, they create a 360° experience through this unique music, with a live Duo set on
wind and string instruments and samplers, a record listening session, and a talk about the
album.
What If We Align Our Breath is an entrancing and layered record that simultaneously
wakes us back into ourselves and edges our awareness beyond us. This is music that asks
for minds that trust their spirits. It reminds us of the sovereignty of our souls, their
interconnectedness, and their ungovernability.
