Sommerkonsertserien Gutvik Ukentlig er inne i sitt tjueandre år med konserter hver tirsdag fra tirsdag fra 30. juli til 3. september. Nå er det MIR som gjelder og en trio med den tyske London-baserte bassisten Otto Willberg, den Norgebaserte slovenske trommeslageren Michaela Antalová, og selvsagt Ketil Gutvik, pryder hovedprogrammet . Perkusjonsvidunderet Jonan Evenstad er ukens Ungsoloen.

Otto Willberg plays various bass instruments and lives in London. Live, Otto performs unashamedly melodic improvisational workouts created almost entirely with heavily filtered bass harmonica and electric bass. Strangely abstracted funk and fusion, a blend of the abstruse and immediate. silky smooth, luxurious, odd and compelling, "like listening to Eberhard Weber through a drainpipe”.
Otto is often heard on acoustic and electric bass with Laurie Tompkins (Yes Indeed) and Charles Hayward (Abstract Concrete//This Heat), as well as the fractured No Wave unit Historically Fucked. His previous solo releases have ranged from extended technique double bass to explorations of the acoustics of a 19th century artillery fort. He has a solo record called ’The Leisure Principle’ out on Oren Ambarchi's the Black Truffle label. 6 unashamedly melodic & profoundly strange workouts for heavily filtered bass harmonica & electric bass!

Michaela Antalová
