about

After studying classical guitar, André Krikula spent some years in Rio de Janeiro where he studied with composer Joaõ de Aquino, guitarist Rosinha de Valença, and singer Maria Helena Imbassai. He toured with his own Brasilian group Cachaça, worked as a studio musician, and played gigs with Caetano Veloso, Jazz singer Betsy Miller, Russian Tango virtuoso Efim Jourist, performance artist Christian von Richthofen, and many others. André Krikula lives in Germany.

André's first solo CD "Criaçaõ" was released in 1994. The CD "Historias", a collaboration with Matamá, was released in 1998.

Es geschah

In addition to loop based improvisation with myself, I was always very interested in the combination of loop music with conventional musical structures, especially in ensembles with other musicians.

Inspired by my experiences with Afro-Brasilian music, I wrote a number of compositions for percussion, marimba, and guitar. Their main characteristic was the integration of jazz harmonics, classical melodics, and African grooves - exotic loops, so to speak. One of these compositions, which are also being performed live, is "Es geschah" (it happened).
