about

Time Circles was recorded in Møn with John Fomsgaard on a hot summer day in 2018 by experimental vocal and saxophone duo Kovacs & Dyberg with the masterful free jazz bassist Asger Thomsen.

Danish-Hungarian Kamilla Kovacs and Danish-Swedish Mia Dyberg are among the most interesting young voices on the Danish jazz and improv scene with an ability to explore both jazz, folk music and daring experiments. In their duo project, they have found a language of their own, where searching saxophone lines and soulful vocals intertwine in an expressive and poetic way. At times raw and with a freejazzed energy, other times soft and almost minimalistic.

“Kovacs's voice is as created for this music. She is experimental in how she uses the voice, but constantly with full control over which tones she chooses" - Jan Granlie, Salt Peanuts 2019

“Thomsen has a strong instinct for structure, which ensures direction and cohesiveness, even during the music’s most free-flowing moments.” – Bill Meyer, Downbeat

'Mia Dyberg is a saxophonist who is well inside the free improvised. But not without having "head and tail" in what she does. (...) She has full control of the free, but also has good jazz history, and uses this freshly in collaboration with the excellent vocalist Kamilla Kovacs. The set they made this evening consisted of free tension, but also parties with clearly structured and planned moments, and, as a whole, this was a brilliant opening on the fine evening at 5e' - Jan Granlie, Salt Peanuts 2017 salt-peanuts.eu/consert/juleavslutning-uten-julesanger-pa-mandagsklubben/
