Henrik Schwarz and Bugge Wesseltoft: Collaborating and Improvising through Technology
What happens when a veteran house producer collaborates with a renowned jazz pianist? What musical common ground do they share and how can they improvise on equal footing when their respective instruments are so different?
In an highly insightful and entertaining presentation at the 2015 Loop summit, Germanyâs Henrik Schwarz and Norwayâs Bugge Wesseltoft go deep into the artistic and technical aspects of their long-standing collaboration. Moderated by CDRâs Tony Nwachukwu, the lively discussion is punctuated by several of Schwarz and Wesseltoftâs free-flowing, genre-defying improvisations.
