FREETET

Manuel Hermia continues his libertarian adventure with Freetet, a modern quintet which brings together his two long-time associates (Manolo Cabras, Joao Lobo) and a high-flying brass section to explore the question of Freedom through the prism of free-jazz .

At a time when we are experiencing multiple crises (ecological, health and political, etc.), Freetet is trying to find a balance between individual and collective speaking out in order to offer the most collaborative model possible. It is libertarian music, where order and chaos are constantly balanced, as in nature. The compositions are clear, but the arrangements, rather than being written, draw directions, balances, role plays, so that each protagonist of the group can permanently appropriate their voice as they see fit.
