Ifa y Xango is a contemporary jazz ensemble based in Brussels and Antwerp. The name refers to two dualities in afro-latino religion. Ifa represents traditional knowledge and wisdom while Xango refers to fire, dance and passion. These two sides are represented in their music. Ifa y Xango's original compositions are often a starting point for improvisation. Composed parts from the different instruments get moved around the ensemble to ensure unique perfomances everytime the band gathers. You can hear orchestral soundscape explorations in the music, some complex rhythmic structures and collectively improvised passages.
