Elbphilharmonie Sessions | Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah (Christian Scott)

The charismatic New Orleans trumpeter plays a session on the Elbphilharmonie Plaza. ➡️ https://elphi.me/SessionChiefXian // SETLIST 00:00 Intro 01:33 Guinnevere 08:13 Diaspora 12:41 Outro Christian Scott, aka Chief Xian Atunde Adjuah, doesn't like to be pigeonholed. The musical innovator wouldn't describe himself as a jazzman: he prefers to call his art »stretch music«, a radically open concept in both musical and cultural terms that combines influences from modal jazz, hard bop, fusion, post-rock, elektronica and hip-hop to create an infectious soundscape. Even his wind instruments don't toe the line – he designed them himself as a kind of hybrid in between the trumpet and the horn. Together with his band collective, he blurs boundaries and combines traditional music with new visions, all of it permeated by a spiritual energy that is very much to the fore in their Plaza session, too. #Christianscott #ElbphilharmonieSessions #ElenaPinderhughes #Jazz #ChiefXianaTundeAdjuah #Elbphilharmonie __ Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah - trumpet, harp Elena Pinderhughes - flute Lawrence Fields - keys Max Mucha - bass Elé Howell - drums Alexander Flood - drums Weedie Braimah - percussion ___️ ELBPHILHARMONIE SESSIONS Artists record exclusive music videos at the Elbphilharmonie and the Laeiszhalle for Elbphilharmonie Sessions – sometimes in unusual locations offstage.
