Aukai

Aukai, the project of composer and multi-instrumentalist Markus Sieber, is an evening of instrumental music at The Jazz Cafe in London, with Vraell also on the bill.

Aukai is the project of composer and multi-instrumentalist Markus Sieber, whose instrumental pieces sit between ambient, folk and modern classical music. The charango, a small Andean string instrument, lies at the centre of the sound, and the pieces are built as compact, cinematic narratives that open out quietly. Drawing on a close bond with nature and a life spent on the move, the music encourages stillness, reflection and calm absorption.

Vraell, a British musician born in 1995, has been active since 2019 and shares the bill on this date in London.

The Jazz Cafe, at 5 Parkway, mainly hosts concerts, with jazz at the heart of its musical offering. The evening is therefore set in a venue whose programming centres on live music.
