Seijiro Murayama  has played with some of Japan’s most renowned noise groups, including Fushitusha (Keiji Haino) and A.N.P. (K.K. Null).  Since relocating to France, his collaborations have extended into dance, theatre and performance, electro acoustic composition and festival curation. Murayama has also formed ongoing partnerships with many extraordinary musicians and composers.
Improvisation has always been the major concern for him and his approach is based on attention to space and place, to the energy of the audience and to the quality and perception of silence on various levels.
Jean-Luc Guionnet  is a French multi-instrumentalist, composer, philosopher and visual artist  and a long term collaborator and fellow traveller with Seijiro  in improvisation. Originally an organist, he moved to saxophone as it was 'easier to carry about' and  has since been described as one of the 'world's greatest living saxophonists' (The Wire).
Join us for one of only two uk appearances from this brilliant improvisational duo (the other being Cafe OTO).
