Fabrizio Cassol
Fabrizio Cassol is a Belgian saxophonist and the first user of the aulochrome (a double soprano saxophone). He was born in Ougrée, Belgium. From 1984, he pursued his learning with François Daneels, John Ruocco, Dennis Luxion, Steve Coleman, Evan Parker and Joe Lovano. At the same time, Cassol began to tour with his first band (Trio Bravo, with Michel Massot and Michel Debrulle).
In 1991, he travelled to the Central African forest with colleagues Stéphane Galland and Michel Hatzigeorgiou to encounter the Aka pygmies. On their return, the trio formed Aka Moon, which remains Cassol’s main project. Besides, he has performed with musicians like Frederic Rzewski, Garrett List, William Sheller, Jacques Pelzer, Toots Thielemans, David Linx, Henri Pousseur, Kris Defoort and DJ Grazzhoppa.
