This year’s Doble Ocho presents
again : the tango jam.
Jazz music is known for its jam (improvising around a musical theme). Jamming in tango however, is new. But why not? Tango is, after
all, improvisation. A tango jam consists of a group of musicians (who differ widely in background, level and knowledge of tango) who create tango music by
improvising. The
fusion JAM is led by 3 or more musicians who will provide some
structure when needed.
The
Jam is open for any musicians with an affection for tango music,
both amature and professional musicians.

GUESTS for the 2010 JAM
Korey
Ireland is a professional composer turned tango-addict. He brings a
lifetime of musical experience and an unquenchable thirst for tango
to his teaching. Originally from Kansas City, Korey has spent
the better part of the last seven years traveling and teaching tango
in England, Holland, Spain, Germany, Russia and Argentina, sharing
his passion for tango, music, expression, and connection. In recent
years, this mission has grown to include work with aspiring tango
musicians at festivals throughout North America and Europe to create
live music for dancers. In November he led the "Monster
Orchestra" of Tango de los Muertos resulting in a live CD of
his arrangements and transcriptions released in late 2009.

ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
Gustavo Mozzi
Made in Buenos Aires, Gustavo Mozzi's music shows the prints of the diversity of traditions
that, through the centuries, whirlpooled on the shores of the Rio de la
Plata. Tango, milonga, murga, native genres and from the European heritage –a palette on which local colors and the cosmopolitan spirit mix as in the port- are subtle presences in the work of
Mozzi.
From an early age
Facundo felt the interest in exploration of the Latin percussion and the motherland, Africa. On his many trips and
stays in these countries he had the opportunity of playing and studying with musicians from very varied backgrounds, a fact that motivates him to expand his sonic palette with tools and techniques, mostly from Africa and the Middle East. Facundo has traveled the world playing and collaborating with artists such as Mercedes Sosa, Hernan Rios
and Liliana Herrero. He won the Latin Grammy Award on the
night that he was playing with Quinteto tango Extremo in
Holland.
Form plus freedom equals improvisation is Iwan Harlan’s musical
motto, Doble Ocho asked him to lead the tango jam for
musicians last 2 editions. He joins the festival initiative to create
the Doble Ocho
fusion music group, and to perform on the festival. Iwan Harlan is a composer, instrumentalist (piano,
guitar, percussion & vocals) and
producer. At the moment Iwan Harlan is involved in the Balkan beat project Turlitawa
Shutka, which recently resulted in a mini CD Romano Chavo. More info:
