In March 2012, the "Spielvereinigung Sued" will perform concerts throughout Germany with the Dresden composer and arranger Thomas Zoller. The program, entitled "Zollers Expeditions Orkest," consists exclusively of Thomas Zoller's compositions and arrangements and will be recorded following the tour.
Zoller's music takes an individual and unconventional approach, combining big band jazz with free jazz, free funk, rock and electronic music. Influences and elements from chamber and new music enrich the music in a compositionally highly interesting way. The goal is a completely independent, fresh sound world for big band, which is expanded by adding a classical percussionist as well as other auflermusical sound generators.
