Walter Jr., dat is een internationale naam met faam en een ensemble van jonge Belgische jazztalenten uit de Conservatoria van Antwerpen en Brussel. Voor deze eerste editie wordt drummer en componist John Hollenbeck de internationale coach. John wordt geïnviteerd om een dag te werken met enkele studenten van het Conservatorium van Antwerpen: Lennart Baerts op sax, drummer Jesse Dockx en Cyrille Obermüller op bas. 's Avonds speelt dit trio de eerste set en warmt zo het podium op voor John Hollenbecks 'invites': The Claudia Quintet! Formed in 1997 by composer, drummer and four-time GRAMMY nominee John Hollenbeck, The Claudia Quintet is one of the most innovative groups to spring from the creativity of New York’s downtown music scene. Hollenbeck named the band for an effusive audience member at an early show who vowed to return for future performances and never did – an act which sparked the imagination of the drummer and gave him a moniker to fit the collective ensemble he envisioned. The band boasts unique instrumentation and a lineup composed of some of the finest exploratory instrumentalists in modern jazz. The Claudia Quintet has remained true to its original mission of creating distinctive improvisational chamber music that defies categorization. Over the course of eight critically acclaimed albums, the ensemble has been a highly effective, exceptionally varied vehicle for Hollenbeck’s music, which reflects influences ranging from jazz to chamber music to varied folk forms and Brazilian rhythms. The Claudia Quintet last release is “Super Petite” on Cuneiform Records.

Na vele gezamenlijke muzikale avonturen bij Orquesta Tanguedia, Papillon, Kadril, Viva Dalida en La vie est Riguelle gaan Karla Verlie en Gwen Cresens grasduinen in hun rijke repertoire van franse chansons, tango's en levensliederen.

JAM!

The Third Guy + David Helbich The Third Guy is a duo based in Brussels, Belgium, featuring Primož Sukič on guitar and Ruben Orio on percussion. Their musical, and artistic research based on composing works that explore, and blur boundaries between improvisation, programmed computer algorithms, and composition. For S M O G n36 the ensemble focuses on collaborating with David Helbich (1973, Berlin), a sound-, installation- and performance artist, as well as a photographer and teacher, who creates a divers range of experimental and conceptual works for the stage, paper and online media and in public space. Helbich has been living and working in Brussels since 2002. Somaticae After starting making music during his youth on his father's groovebox, Somaticae has then flirted with many genres such as electroacoustic, electronica, noise, acid, industrial and techno. Since then he keeps on experimenting through rhythms and noises.

Trevor Watts and Veryan Weston have known each other for years and it shows. Watts is a remarkable, linear improviser with a powerful rhythmic sense and who benefits from musical partners who can follow agilely down the sometimes labyrinthine paths he may take. Weston does so admirably without ever losing his own sense of himself. It makes for an ideal partnership and music close to perfection

Some of the comments from previous Feral Choir participants are as follows: “You have let the sun enter into my head” “Thank you for the most fantastic experience to let us express ourselves in this way”. “A new heart in my voice”. “You and your work brings happiness (and other great things) to people”
