La Minor

Sechs brillante Musiker von La Minor spielen auf eine moderne jazzige Art und Weise alte sowjetische Ganovenlieder der 30-50er Jahre. Der so genannte └russische Chanson⌠, der auf den Strassen der russischen Staedte aus unzaehligen Lautsprechern ertoent, bekommt bei La Minor neuen anspruchsvoll-wilden Klang. Das Ganze mit dem Kleinkriminellencharme der St. Petersburger Vororte.

Cool and jazzy urban folk... Bandits ballads... Odessa beats... Russian chanson... The ensemble LA MINOR was founded in summer 2000. The ensemble performs in the style of street chanson with Russian folk and Klezmer influence. Once by the unknown people the style of LA MINOR was named as "Odessa beats". It s the most precise determination in which LA MINOR live, create and perform. The music of LA MINOR enriched by bayan (Russian accordion), saxophone and contrabass brings you back to the atmosphere of 20-40-es years and reminds the soundtrack to good old films about gangsters▓ tragic love and great swindlers of that time. Happy and nostalgic in the same time their music will not leave you untouched. The collective consists of professional musicians. Gradually their work went out to bigger public and got the recognition outside of Russia. They have successfully performed in clubs and on festivals in France, Germany, Finland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and other European countries. (kv-nbg.de)
