Little Rosies Kindergarten – Explorations – live at Porgy & Bess 2021/22 (Listen Closely – 2023)
From September 2021 to June 2022, Little Rosies Kindergarten held a residency at the prestigious Porgy & Bess jazz club in Vienna. Under the title “Explorations”, the collective explored a vast sonic territory across ten concerts – from heavy grooves to meditative sound clouds, from freely improvised drones to chamber music, from songs to electro-acoustic experimentation, from impro to disco. This record presents a selection of the highlights.
