Ka Dao Yin

about

The name Ka Dao Yin 卡到音 (pronounced Kǎ Dào Īn) is a transliteration of a Taiwanese wordplay which means ‘getting caught up in something’, — in Ka Dao Yin‘s case, it means loosely structured, but deeply felt, expressive improvisation with intuitive interplay between the group members. Founded in 2009, Ka Dao Yin is co-led by Taiwanese pianist Shih-Yang Lee and German saxophonist Klaus Bru, who are both prominent figures on the improvisation music circuit. Lee’s music is rooted in his solid classical training, while Bru came from his jazz background. The other members of the ensemble bring with them influences of traditional Chinese music. Ka Dao Yin has performed at the Taichung Jazz Festival (2012 & 2013, Taiwan) and the“Semaine des cultures étrangères” Festival (2013, Paris). Ka Dao Yin has recorded film music, and collaborated with choreographers, sound artists, and musicians from Japan, Germany, Italy, France, and Taiwan.
