Jazz? Classical music? Romantic music? Fee Stracke’s musical concept contains all these facets as well as some more. She brings them out with a line-up that is rather uncommon in improvised music: clarinet and viola/violin smoothly feed each other lines instead of saxofone and guitar. Stracke’s compositions open up spaces for freely associating sounds, images, whatever, both for listener and musician. Her style is vivid, rhythmic, humorous. Don’t be surprised if it also comes to exciting and entertaining “latin folklore 2.0”. Yet it remains surprising how much energy there is in the chamber musical setting – and how much of it is transferred directly to its listeners.
