Created in 2016, The Interconnections Ensemble is the brainchild of Brazilian composer Felipe Salles. The meaning of the word interconnections is present in this ensemble in many levels of its artistic vision, including dualities of musical and cultural influences, as well as the juxtaposition of composition and improvisation.
The Felipe Salles Interconnections Ensemble brings together modern large jazz ensemble writing, contemporary classical textures and Latin American rhythmic influences in a unique way.
The music represents the interconnection between many cultural influences, ranging from Brazilian, American, Argentinean, and European musical sources.
The approach to composition, using layers of melodic and rhythmic counterpoint, also expresses the interconnectivity behind the musical product. Finally, the exploration of individual improvisation, as a contrast to collective playing, adds another dimension to the ensemble’s sound!
