From August 31 to September 10, 2014 Swiss musicians Jonas Kocher and Gaudenz Badrutt teamed up with St.Petersburg-based saxophone player Ilia Belorukov for a series of seven concerts in Russia. For this trip, they wereaccompanied by photographer Lucas Dubuis. All travellers documented their journey intuitively, collecting all kinds of audio and visual material. The result is a varied approach to this project: a 32-minute film on DVD, a series of photographs, a short and fragmented tour diary by Ilia Belorukov, an extended discussion about musical practice between Gaudenz Badrutt, Jacques Demierre and Jonas Kocher, and a contribution from Kemerovo-based musician Alexander Markvart about improvised music in Siberia.

Gaudenz Badrutt
He began as a pianist in the field of contemporary classic music and works since 20 years as an electronics musician in the field of improvised electroacoustic music.
He is best known in current times as an improvising electronics musician using computers (sampling) and various other electronic apparatus such as usual distortion devices, no-input-mixing or modular-synthesizer. Filigree, minimal noises, drones and dense structures are key characteristics of his music. Central to Badrutt’s activities are collaborations such as the duo with Jonas Kocher (accordion), the duo with Hans Koch (clarinet, sopranosaxophone), and the trio with Koch and Kocher as well as the working-band duo strøm with Christian Müller (electronics). In the last few years, solo-performances became important too. He is further occupied in the fields of electronic composition, sound & video installation and videos (like ‚magma‘ and ‚Quiet Novosibirsk‘).
