Nik Bärtsch from Switzerland is certainly one of the most original interpreters of current European jazz. His music, which he calls ‘Ritual Groove Music’, shows a strong affinity with organised spatial architectures and the principles of repetition and reduction as well as with complex rhythms. It is a concentrate of the universal sound and not of a single national or stylistic tradition, and changes continuously through superimpositions, directing the listener’s attention to minimal variations and phrasing.
Born in Zurich in 1971, Nik Bärtsch began at a very young age as a drummer, then went on to study piano, philosophy and linguistics, later turning to various disciplines of the body and oriental philosophies. This eclectic pursuit is also expressed through his two main musical projects, Ronin and Mobile. His most recent album, Entendre, moves between the pure sounds of acoustic piano treasuring the minimalist lesson, alternating singable melodies with more hypnotic moments. All always in a context of great depth and charm.
