Sol6 is a group initiated by UK pianist Veryan Weston and Luc Ex.
It has an unusual instrumentation which almost leans towards chamber music, but then there is the ‘punky’ energy and often high spirited open improvisations that are not afraid to become lyrical either.
Sol6 combine composed and tightly rehearsed pieces with related improvisations that link and also reflect the composed material. This is a tradition and style which Luc and Veryan have helped develop together in previous projects and groups like Roof and 4Walls. They feel as free as fish in the sea, when the musical territory can be open enough to dive in and out of noisy grooves or as sweet harmonies as well as into completely free and abstract improvisation.
Sol’s repertoire contains a combination of more simple ‘Ex’ or ‘Ex-Weston’-pieces and as well as this, full advantage is taken of there being four players who can also sing. Each singer features a composer. Cellist - Hannah Marshall sings songs by Charles Ives, Veryan Weston sings songs by Erik Satie, viola player - Mandy Drummond sings songs by Burt Bacharach.
The music has been recorded live at the Bimhuis Amsterdam in the srping of 2009. Mixed and mastered by the Zlaya Hadzich.
