Madis Muul Hextet, incorporating eight of Estonia’s most brilliant younger generation musicians, will present their new album at the Jazz Estonia concert at Jazz Time Club.

Madis Muul Hextet is an octet that consists of a rhythm section and four clarinets. Madis Muul, the creator of Hextet, tells about the new album to be presented: “In music creation I’ve been inspired by theatre, my life and society. Successful cooperation with VAT Theatre as provided me with deeper understanding of different characters in this world. Each story talks about different characters around us. The listener can recognise these characters, create their own links and possibly even create their own version of them. I would describe this music as a journey including melancholy, irony and psychedelics, and where different genres like jazz, proge, acoustic and electronics collide.  So, at the concert we are going to present an album called “Characters”, recorded in a retro atmosphere. Marta Jakovski is participating as a guest soloist.”

Madis Muul is a keyboard player, pianist and composer. He has written and recorded music for bands like Flavor, Power Play, New Dimensions, MA and Madis Muul Hextet. Madis Muul also participates in various jazz and pop music groupings (JT Conception, Andres Alaru Trio, Raul Vaigla, Lenna, and others). In addition, Muul has been active in several theatre plays both as a performer of music (“Faust”, “A Man Who Did Not Do Anything”) and as a composer (“Luncheon on The Lawn”, “Adam and Eve”). Madis Muul has graduated from the Georg Ots Tallinn Music School with the specialisation in pop-jazz piano (teachers V.Vysotsky, S.Pedersen), and has also studied jazz accordion in the same school (teacher T.Kalluste). At the moment, Madis is finalising his studies in the field of jazz piano at Siena Jazz University in Italy.
