Fyodor D is a free jazz and improvisation project that has been exploring the connections between reeds and percussions since 2005.
As a duo, Fyodor D delves into creative and research music, as well as into an open confrontation with the history of free music.
The recent performance "Ornetto Perfetto" is based on a personal reelaboration of Ornette Coleman's music.
The trio version with guitar is a surprising bassless ensamble, with lively and dynamic music as a result.
Spontaneus musical combustion.
Fyodor D's relationship to free jazz and improvised music is strong and informal.
The tie to the music of Ornette Coleman, William Parker, Sam Rivers and the Art Ensemble of Chicago leads to respectful and joyful
"deplacement" of jazz tradition.
The Rhythmic interplay, the dynamics and the sound research play an important role in our music, both on free improvisations and on
the reelaboration of the music of great creative musicians.
