The trio has collaborated with DJs, players of traditional instruments, choirs (from the Gregorian chant ensemble Vox Clamantis to the Estonian National Male Choir), and many improvising musicians like Jan Bang (live sampling), Brian Melvin (percussion), Markus Reuter (touch guitar), David Rothenberg (clarinet) and Toyah Willcox (vocals).
After their concert at the 2011 Punkt festival in Tallinn, their music was instantly “remixed” by Erik Honoré, Eivind Aarset and Arve Henriksen.
Incorporating an arsenal of effects, a variety of extended techniques and a few choice pieces of peripheral hardware, WGT creates striking soundscapes. The players read off of each other with natural ease and know how to coax unique moods from their instruments. They cross the borders of jazz, rock, traditional and electronic music, throwing in enough stylistic changes to insure Zero Listener Ennui.
At their concert you might feel as if in curved space, where the laws of 3-dimensional physics are not valid. The program is different each time, depending on the venue, the atmosphere, the sound ... and the audience.
Having played together for 25 years, they have plenty of tracks to choose from. But they always throw in at least some freely improvised – or “spontaneously composed” – music as well, sometimes using live electronics in a pre-arranged way, sometimes in the “let’s-push-this-button- and-see-what-happens” style.
