Ira Hadžić (DEU) 
CHRISTOPH GALLIO (CH)/ PHIL DURRANT (UK) / DREW MCMILLAN / PAUL BUCKTON

Leila Adu is an astonishing force in the space where electropop, avant-classical and singer-songwriter meet. Exploring her roots in New Zealand, Britain and Ghana, Adu is an international artist who has performed at festivals and venues across the world.
Compared to Nina Simone and Joanna Newsome by WNYC, Adu has released five acclaimed albums, and has given visionary solo BBC and WQXR performances. Adu’s credits include Ojai Music Festival, Bang on a Can, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, Late Night with David Letterman, and composing for a Billboard charted album.
Adu holds a Princeton University music composition PhD. In 2022, Leila Adu–Gilmore has been awarded a Charles Ives Composer Fellowship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Ira Hadžić, born in Sarajevo, is a Berlin-based sound artist with a background in cultural anthropology. Her practice unfolds at the intersections of improvisation, composition, and introspection. Working with gongs, radiophonic forms, field recordings, resonance, minimal sonic gestures, and silence itself, she explores sound as a site of presence and perception. Her projects have been produced by broadcasters such as Deutschlandfunk Kultur and Südwestrundfunk. Trained as a Deep Listening facilitator at the Center for Deep Listening, she incorporates these practices into her compositions and sound installations. 

Durrant/Gallio Duo
The duo of Phil Durrant - electric mandolin &amp; electronics, and Christoph Gallio - saxophones,
was formed in 2022 during Gallio’s residency in London. However the musicians first met in
Switzerland 40 years previously and have occasionally worked together in adhoc projects.
Individually, they are veterans of the internaMonal ‘free improvised music’ scene and have
been involved in notable projects that have shaped the development of the music. These
projects include Butcher/Durrant/Russell, Trio Sowari, DAY &amp; TAXI.
As a duo, they have a forthcoming release on Empty Birdcage Records.

They are joined by two of Tāmaki Makaurau's most experienced exponents of free improvisation - Paul Buckton &amp; Andrew McMillan
