In the last year of its existence, the A L’ARME! Festival remains true to the opening tradition and starts the three-day finale with an impressive solo concert. In New York City, the cellist and noise artist Leila Bordreuil is very popular as an insider tip and scene activist: feedbacks, electronics and cello drones meander between sound art, ambient and noise.

The Berlin jazz drummer Oliver Steidle is one of Germany's most renowned improvisation musicians and will make his first audiovisual appearance at A L’ARME! with his new duo Narr // Steidle. The Japanese video artist Tanaka Saou comes from Leipzig, as does the electric guitarist Steffi Narr, and completes the free rock duo for the A/V premiere.
A L’ARME! brings together one last time. deliberately chooses sound artists who live predominantly in Germany and presents the latest release “Antumbra” by the duo Stemeseder – Lillinger as an ultra-modern update of what could best be described as avant-garde jazz. The exceptional pianist and keyboardist Elias Stemeseder and the award-winning drummer Christian Lillinger move between live processing, club sound and improvisation.
Since moving from Buenos Aires to Berlin five years ago, the young Argentinian baritone saxophonist Sofía Salvo has taken the capital by storm. Artistically equally at home in the Berlin noise underground, improvised music and performance art, she carries the torch of free music into the next generation.
On the occasion of A L’ARME! Finales will see her meet for the first time and exclusively with two musicians who were already present at the first festival edition in 2012: the top Norwegian drummer Paal Nilssen-Love and the Japanese guitar noise legend Keiji Haino.
