The Community presents: Mia Dyberg Improviser Summit (DE/DK)
Experience the second part of the project ‘Improviser Summit’!
–> 5 improvisers in a new meeting the 3rd of July at KoncertKirken! Mia Dyberg meets Berlin-based bassclarinetist Wojtek Bajda[PL] (Xing). 3 More improvisers TBA..!
Improviser Summit rose from a joined vision of building a bridge between the German and Danish jazz/improvised music-scene, by creating and opening relations between improvising musicians worldwide.
OPEN AIR – Free entrance!
Mia Dyberg[DK/SE] is the brain behind the project and is a freelance improviser, saxophonist, composer, co-founder and project leader also in ‘The Community’. She is one of the new exciting voices on the European jazz scene.
The project consists of 3 parts:
–> The first part is: ‘A yearlong concert series’! Because of Dyberg’s residency in Berlin, where she collects inspiration from international artists on a daily basis, she will invite Berlin-based artists to play in Copenhagen and Danish musicians to play in Berlin during April 2016 and April 17.
–>The second part is two concerts the 3rd and 7th of July in KoncertKirken’s courtyard during Copenhagen Jazz Festival = ‘The Community Presents: Improvisor Summit’
–>The third part of the project will consist of an ‘Improviser Summit Week’ in Berlin [spring 2017]. An inspiration week to connect and expand relations between German and Danish improvising musicians, but also musicians worldwide – by using interaction as the driving force.
Line up:
Wojtek Bajda bassclarinet, clarinet
Mia Dyberg: Alto saxophone, objects
TBA 3 Berlin/Copenhagen Improvisers
Mia Dyberg currently lives in Berlin and the last couple of years she has made roots on the international scene, performing with improv-musicians such as Clayton Thomas [AU], Christian Balvig, Kamilla Kovacs, Kasper Tom, Tobias Delius, Herb Robertson[US], Niklas Barnö [SE] Oscar Noriega[US] and Michael Evans[US] etc. She grew up in the swedish archipelago and her both wild and impressionistic music is often affected by the grand swedish nature. But there is also a pulse of the city. Her unique melodic expression emerges from wild sound experiments combined with scandinavian melancholy.
‘Both Dyberg and Robertson utilized a range of ancillary sound-making devices and techniques, stretching into AACM -inspired passages of deep conversation, playful chatter and bluesy storytelling’ —Clifford Allen, New York City Jazz Record

The Community presents: Mia Dyberg Improviser Summit (DE/DK)
‘Improviser Summit’ udsprang af en fælles vision om at at bygge en bro mellem den tyske og danske scene, bl. a. ved at skabe og udvide relationer mellem improvisations musikere på verdensplan.
Mia Dyberg er co-founder og projektleder I The Community, hvorigennem Dyberg løbende arrangerer events, sammen med andre ‘The Community participants’. Under Copenhagen Jazz Festival 2016 kuraterer Dyberg for andet år I træk ‘The Community presents’ OPEN AIR festival. ‘The Community presents’ CPJ 2015: http://llk.dk/c5unmq
Bosiddende i Berlin henter Dyberg daglig inspiration fra internationale Berlin-baserede artister. Projektet Improviser Summit består blandt andet i at Dyberg som improvisations-ambassadør, i løbet af April 2016-2017 inviterer berlin-baserede artister til at spille i København og musikere fra Kbh til at spille i Berlin. Den anden del af projektet vil bestå i en uges ’Improviser Summit’ i Berlin, hvor vi skaber og udvider relationer mellem improvisations musikere fra hele verden – med interaktion som den drivende kraft.
Koncerterne d 3/7, 5/7 og 7/7 er en del af projektet ’Improviser Summit’.
Samarbejdspartnere er DJBFA, JAZZHOUSE, The Community & diverse spillesteder.
Mia Dyberg har længe været et af de interessante navne i det unge københavnske jazz/improv-miljø. Hun er vokset op i den svenske skærgård og hendes lige dele vilde og impressionistiske musik lader sig ofte også farve af den storslåede svenske natur. Men her er også en intens puls af storby. For tiden er Dyberg bosat i Berlin, hvor hun bl.a. spiller med den store improv-musiker Clayton Thomas. Som udøvende freelance saxofonist, komponist og projektleder har Dyberg de sidste par år slået rødder på den internationale scene, i egne projekter som Kovacs & Dyberg, CHEAP ANIMALS[DK/LV], Christian Balvig/Mia Dyberg feat. Clayton Thomas[AU], Mia Dyberg/Szymon Pimpon[PL] feat. Tobias Delius[DE/NL] bl.a. Tyskland, Polen og Egypten. Mia optræder også i forskellige ad hoc projekter bl.a. i New York og Stockholm med musikere som Herb Robertson[US], Niklas Barnö [SE] Oscar Noriega[US] og Michael Evans[US].
Presse: ‘Både Dyberg og Robertson benytter et udvalg af medhjælpende lyd skabende apparater og teknikker, som strækker sig ind i AACM -inspirerede passager af dyb samtale, legende knevren og bluesy historiefortælling’—Clifford Allen, New York City Jazz Record
‘Jeg ved ikke hvordan Mia Dyberg gør det, men mange gange glemmer man at det overhovedet er en saxofon hun spiller på. Det er så meget mere’ – Lisa Appelqvist, Kristianstadbladet.
