Punkt 2025 Day 2 presents:
13:00-16:00 Punkt Seminar at Kunstsilo (free entrance)
Curated and hosted by David Toop
17:45 Doors open at Teateret
18:00 Sofia Jernberg / Alexander Hawkins «Musho»
Musho moves seamlessly between abstract exploration and the immediacy of song, with the visceral effect of sinking into a tender and powerful embrace. In this duo, Sofia Jernberg and Alexander Hawkins draw on their shared affinity for the music of Ethiopia, having both honed their languages in the company of musical elder statesmen from that country: Jernberg with Hailu Mergia, and Hawkins with Mulatu Astatke.
18:45 Ghosted (Oren Ambarchi / Johan Berthling / Andreas Werliin)
The trio connected in 2018 at Stockholm's Studio Rymden, where they began to unravel their musical influences, focusing their powers on the fertile space between 70s ECM jazz, electronic minimalism, African music and so much more. Aussie guitarist Ambarchi is one of the experimental scene's most recognizable figures, with iconic albums on Touch, PAN, Editions Mego and his own Black Truffle label, while Swedish bassist Johan Berthling is best known for founding the Häpna imprint and performing in bands such as Fire! and Tape. Drummer Andreas Werliin completes the puzzle, bringing his varied experience playing with Wildbirds & Peacedrums and Fire! and collaborating with artists like Andrew Bird and Mats Gustafsson. They've been making music together for years, and Ghosted is where everything falls perfectly into place. In early 2022, legendary Chicago label Drag City quietly released the trio’s first release and their second release Ghosted II in April 2024.

20:30 Andrea Giordano «Àlea» Live Premiere
Andrea Giordano is a musician, singer, and composer from Cuneo, Italy and based in Oslo. In works characterized by rich chamber orchestration, Giordano investigates hyper-instrumentation, Piedmontese dialect and extended techniques for voice. Since 2018, Giordano has been creating vocal works in Piedmontese, drawing upon ongoing research into her family’s dialect. Giordano’s recent work includes the large ensemble project Àlea, the solo project “exapist euforia,” duo collaborations with Fanny Meteier and Eivind Lønning; and an upcoming interdisciplinary project with Kjell Bjørgeengen. Giordano completed her undergraduate work at Siena Jazz University and continued with a master’s in jazz and performance at the Norwegian Academy of Music, where she was a student of Sidsel Endresen.
