Listening Session with Bill Frisell

An acoustic voyage through the record collection of a revolutionary guitarist.

Before the renowned guitarist Bill Frisell takes to the stage to perform his unique music in four concerts with nine fellow musicians, he takes time out for a vinyl session and on-stage discussion by way of a warm-up for his »Reflektor« festival. In the Kaistudio, he plays his all-time favourite recordings that have shaped his music and continue to inspire him to this day. The intriguing question is: what does someone listen to whose own work ranges from folk to rock, classical to country and bluegrass?

The evening offers up a unique opportunity to take an acoustic look into the record cabinet of one of the great jazz guitarists of our time, in a cosy and relaxed setting. He shares his thoughts, perspectives and memories with Tom R. Schulz. The conversation will be in English.
