James Holden & Waclaw Zimpel: Guinness Cork Jazz Festival 2025 at the Triskel. British synth wizard James Holden and Polish clarinet guru Waclaw Zimpel have formed a collaborative alliance where they can explore their deepest improvisational urges.

British synth wizard James Holden meets Polish clarinet guru Waclaw Zimpel to form Holden & Zimpel: a collaborative alliance wherein these two versatile modern composers might explore their deepest improvisational urges in an intimate setting, to strikingly lush, hypnotic and deeply emotive effect. Two like-minded masters of their instrument come together in an in-the-moment lyrical conversation between alto clarinet and modular synth, cementing the joyful convergence of their disparate musical journeys in an explosion of raw musical creativity in its most primal form.
