Label: Aspen Edities

激激カッコ良い反復リズム及びパルス演奏作!!ジャン・ティンゲリーのオマージュ演奏からガチガチの鉱物即興までをやるプレイヤーであり、ノルウェーのインプロヴィゼーション・レーベルSofaを主宰し様々な音楽家のサポートをしているパーカッショニストIngar Zach。通算8枚目となる2023年ソロアルバムがベルギーのAspen Editiesより出版。聴いての通り氏の作品群の中では大変珍しい気持ちの良いリズムトラックを主軸とした内容で、ティンパニと自身の声を交えつつパーカッションでガツガツと突き進むサマは爽快。難しい事は抜きで感覚的に浸れてしまう妙なグルーブ感も最高。

Strumento di etimo incerto’ is Ingar Zach’s eighth solo album, presenting his ever-continous research with his instruments and its vibrations.
Zach’s characteristic sound sources are vibrating speakers on a Gran Cassa, snaredrum and timpani, creating a strange world, consisting of rhythmic patternsand a huge variety in oscillations.

The musician proposes music of an uncertain nature: sending out impulses, leading to pulses. The sounds group and fall apart, sometimes abruptly, but always subtle. Addressing the listener with physical sensations, while their meaning is entirely constructed in the ear of the receiver.


Ingar Zach is a Nordic percussionist with a Southern feel. The Gran Cassa has become his main source of sound exploration. The mighty drum is gently laid at and freed from its bombastic lower ranges. Instead, the skin becomes a vast field of varying sound landscapes.

Zach works in the field of contemporary music with ensembles like Dans les arbres, Huntsville and O3 alongside his solo and collaborative projects. In recent years he composed music for Ensemble MusikFabrik, Quatuor Bozzini, Speak Percussion, Alessandra Rombolà and Pinquins among others. He has been part of the quintet Linus + Økland/Van Heertum/Zach (‘mono no aware’ - Aspen 001, ‘light as never’ - Aspen 014)
