Arnold Dreyblatt presents the world premiere of new music commissioned by Zinc & Copper in Acud Club on 3 July 2018. Following their popular concerts at Maerz Musik and Berlin Jazzfest, as well as the renowned recording of Ellen Arkbro’s “For Organ and Brass” in 2017, the ensemble now move into a new rhythmic territory with “Zinc & Copper Wired”.
