ABOUT FIMARA
FIMARA is an acronym for “For Improvised Music and Related Actions”. It is a concert series aimed at gathering improvisers and related artists from Copenhagen’s scenes and beyond. FIMARA focuses on improvised music and the potential interwoven musical expressions and/or boundaries, such as the so-called Free Jazz, Sound Art, and Noise. In the upcoming months FIMARA will organize a series of concerts and ad-hoc constellations at Cap30.
