Fractal is a septet around the Swiss jazz guitarist Jan Herzog. In 2013 he founded the “Extended in Motion Sextet” from which the “Fractal” septet emerged in 2014. The music of the ensemble moves from dense networks to intimate solos and duos, seemingly simple harmonic and rhythmic structures to complex grooves and soundscapes. Passages written out for a long time are contrasted by large forms of improvisation. In the course of a concert, the formation affects various musical states of composition, both in terms of composition and improvisation, in both small and large.

FRAKTAL is a septet founded and led by swiss jazzguitarist Jan Herzog. His music, brought to life by each member‘s strong and individual sound, takes place inbetween classifications and is looking for the connective elements through the use of a modern jazz language. From dense nettings to intimate solos and duos, seemingly simple harmonical and ryhtmical structures to complex grooves and musical landscapes, FRAKTAL‘s first album „Polarisation Of Light“ explores the area of conflict between light and darkness.
