Add to your event list
Following the first live recording session of ORBIT: On the Wings of Freedom in November 2024, tap dancer and bandleader Petra Haller returns to the Vortex Jazz Club with the second chapter: ORBIT: The Fierce Urgency of Now. Taking place on May 13th, this concert will once again be recorded live, contributing to an upcoming album set for release in late 2025 or early 2026.
The recording continues Haller’s fearless journey into collective improvisation - where rhythm, movement, music, and poetry collide in a space that is spontaneous, raw, and unrepeatable.
Petra Haller
Petra Haller is a leading force in using tap dance as a percussive voice within contemporary jazz and improvised music. She dissolves the line between dancer and musician, placing tap at the centre of the ensemble as a driving rhythmic instrument. With a background spanning traditional jazz, avant-garde, improvisation, and interdisciplinary performance, she has worked with major figures across the UK and Europe.
