Friends of Chamber Music: The Dreamers' Circus
TBA
- Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen, violin
- Nikolaj Busk, piano & accordion
- Ale Carr, Nordic cittern
Formed following a live jam session in Copenhagen more than ten years ago, this talented trio's sound is based on virtuosic and incendiary musical ability across a range of instruments that includes fiddle, accordion, piano, and cittern. The name of the band is derived from their magical childhood memories of the circus and a desire to make musical space for imagination and dreaming.
"Folk-rooted but genre-defying in music that shifted through the playful and the sublime." – The Scotsman
