Wooli Duo (TW/NO) ¦ Cph Jazz Festival

Step into a new world of sound, and experience East Asian musical expressions crossed with improvisation and electronics.

Wooli is an avant-garde folk duo formed by Taiwanese pipa player Fan-Qi Wu and Norwegian drummer Michael Lee Sørenmo. Since their debut in Oslo in April 2024, the duo has performed across Europe at festivals such as Vestafor Festival, Aarhus Jazz Festival, Babel Sound Festival, and (s)Nodi Festival. Their first album self-titled Wooli, was released the 13th of March 2026.

​Wooli draws inspiration from East Asian traditional and folk music and the expressive freedom of free improvisation. At the heart of the project is a desire to reinterpret and transform cultural heritage, engaging with tradition not as a fixed form but as a living, evolving force. Their music is shaped through improvisation, real-time dialogue, and a shared curiosity for sound.
