Cube Friday 22:30
Do you remember how The TooT Ensemble entertained the heck out of you at AMPLIFIER 2022? Well, what we have for you this year is another unbridled brass ensemble that made even pensioners and wheelchair users hit the dancefloor. Each of their compositions takes something different from those genres, and otherwise uses the possibility of combining seemingly unrelated styles. The whole concert is then journey from the unexpected to the next unexpected, only more and more in a dance trance. For Tygroo, playing live is something like a ritual, an opportunity to return to the original madness, a moment when one can joyfully dissolve in music and dance, together with the band, together with the audience. Come burn calories at their concert!
Tygroo is a Czech band that creates the atmosphere of an electronic music concert using brass instruments, following the example of the American bands Moon Hooch and Too Many Zooz, while combining eastern and western genres in an original way. They have created an original way of connecting instruments that allows us to use real-time effects that you would not expect in acoustic music. This also gives us the sound we have, and thus we are able to tighten even a large stage, for which these instruments (brass and drums) alone would not be enough.
