Opbrakel 10 inch ReleaseCampo Victoria, Ghent
25.03.2023

To present their first record, a-e-i-o-u played a release concert at Campo Victoria, Ghent. During four attempts, they replayed the improvised record as exactly as possible. Set up in a semi-circle, with a time code and a conductor, they did their utmost to approach the  spontaneity of the original recordings. That impossible task allowed the collective to emphasise the value of improvisation. By recreating this moment, they gave attention to all the impulses, dynamics and feelings that come into play during an improvisation.
