SLIDE COLLECTIVE
Based in Fribourg (CH), the trombone and tuba ensemble Slide Collective is dedicated to creating original, hybrid and committed programs. From lyricism to groove, from contemporary music to jazz, these talented young musicians are gathered around the very identity of the trombone, versatility, expressiveness and eclecticism.
In this first program “Identity(ies)”, our touching compositions transport listeners into our cultural and poetic realities.
Slide Collective brings many young composers from diverse backgrounds into its musical journey, leading to local creative influence.
Quote
" The living ensemble takes its place, imposes itself without invasion, subtly strikes the spectator. The result is the emergence of a healthy power, an intense organic life, transmitted by an appropriate language, judiciously distilled throughout the concert: inspirations/expirations, rhythms, or raw breaths, voices whose origin we no longer know, Victor Decamp creates a carnal, sensual music, making extensive use of mutes according to his intention to lead attention to the interior or the exterior, the visible or the invisible, the skin or the deep. "
Christiane Blaise, Choreographer
" Slide Collective breathes soberly, yet intensely. Composed of talented young musicians and led with humility by Victor Decamp, it reveals in this program available instruments, with astonishing amplitude capacities, and whose reunion is rarely highlighted. The result is a real artistic tension. " Christiane Blaise, choreographer
