Yet, beneath the surface lies a rich tapestry of cyclical rhythms inspired by Middle-Eastern and Indian musical traditions. Initially formed as a nonet in 2005, Spinifex transitioned to its current working-band size in 2010. Over time, the group has nurtured a distinct ensemble culture through extensive touring and the release of nine albums. Their music seamlessly integrates meticulously composed structures with massive improvisational freedom.
At Opus Jazz Club, Spinifex presents the world premiere of MAXXIMUS, a special project marking Spinifex’ 20 years of existence, featuring three great guest musicians: Jessica Pavone (viola), Elisabeth Coudoux (cello) and Evi Filippou (vibraphone/percussion). With this project, the ensemble expands its musical palette and opens the doors to an acoustic sound world, using the colors of a string trio, acoustic guitar, bass clarinet and vibraphone. Of course, the vintage Spinifex approach will never be far away: intense, rigorously composed structures and free improvisation stay at the center of the ensemble’s concept. The material for MAXXIMUS has been composed by Elisabeth Coudoux, Tobias Klein, Bart Maris, Jasper Stadhouders and Gonçalo Almeida. They have contributed pieces that have been written for the specific personalities and talents of the MAXXIMUS players.
