21:00 Trilok Gurtu`s Crazy Saints Indien/USA/F
Trilok Gurtu: drums, tabla, voice, percussion
Andy Emler: piano, keyboards
David Gilmore: guitar
Chris Minh Doky: bass
Whoever believes that drum sets are made up only out of hi hats, snares,
bass drums, tom toms and cymbals, will do a double take when they see
Trilok Gurtu. And when even the most tortuous meters suddenly start to
groove on the straightaway, it's enough to make anyone speechless.
(Jazzthing)
Trilok Gurtu played here before an astonished audience already last year
but some of this club's artistic management took exception at his choice
of piano accompanist. Now, with the support of the French keyboard
magician, Andy Emler, master percussionist Gurtu will have another
chance to make a lasting impression on the Porgy chiefdom. CH
Admission: AS 200
24:00 Sumitra
Sumitra: vocals

& Guests
But we keep reaching and striving and planning our lives/Like a
timetable/Holding on and searching for something/We`ll never be able to
find/Not in this life/Maybe in the next world/The secret of our souls
Sumitra has set out on a quest for the meaning of life and to probe the
secrets of the soul. A tip for the stressed-out city dweller: Record
this date in your calendar, leave your cellular phone at home, then come
sink into one of Porgy's velvet armchairs and soak up a dose of
Sumitra's Indian-inspired wisdom. CH
Admission: AS 150
