Bunte Luft Trio
Jan Wegmann - Synthesizer
Jana De Troyer - Saxophones
Tam Thi Pham - Đàn bầu
Bunte Luft Trio is an improvisation group from Hamburg that focuses on the sonic interactions of Đàn Bầu, baritone saxophone and modular synthesizer. All three instruments are rooted in completely different genres. The musicians use this peculiarity as a springboard to create their characteristic sound. Tam Thi Pham (VN), Jana De Troyer (BE) and Jan Wegmann (DE) bring their own artistic backgrounds to the table, moving through different atmospheres that let the audience travel through interplanetary deserts and microscopic forests.
Bunte Luft Trio has played in venues and festivals such as the MS Stubnitz, Hotclub de Gand, blurred edges Festival Hamburg, Runde Ecken Festival Münster and Westwerk Hamburg. In October 2023 they performed as part of Hiền Hoàng’s outdoor installation “Scent from Heaven.” They regularly invite guests to join their concert evenings and they have played with musicians such as Kris Kuldkepp, Mahakit Mahaniranon, Ha Thuy Hang and Bart Maris. Their first album Apiaciae was released in June 2024. In September 2025 the trio released their second album Xeronema on bandcamp and as a cd.

Chromatic Noise Collection is a Hamburg-based ensemble for contemporary and multimedia performance that combines image and light with harpsichord, saxophone and live electronics. The ensemble strives to expand the repertoire of this unique blend of instruments and their sub-combinations.
Our aim is to contribute to the development of multimedia art by incorporating new technologies, light and video as elements in the musical discourse and not as an extension of it. We want to present the music of a generation of younger multimedia composers and through experimentation and intensive exchange, deepen the professionalisation and development of multimedia music work in northern Germany.
There is no air in Space
Kelsey Cotton - Voice, Electronics

TINAIS (There is no air in Space) is a contemporary duo exploring the boundaries of the saxophone and voice — two instruments dependent on the power of the human breath. Co-founded by Jana De Troyer and Kelsey Cotton, TINAIS ventures into new sound worlds and spaces, specialising in the creation, performance and curation of the weird, the wild and the wonderful.
De Troyer and Cotton have performed in styles ranging from 80s synth-pop to free improvisation, and everything in between. Together they have brought their musical experience and diversity to stages throughout Europe, in acoustic and electronic configurations.
TINAIS is committed to being at the nucleus of new music, turning musical convention on its head through varying musical and performative forms; and commissioning, programming and performing music from minority and underrepresented compositional voices.
