All tickets for the original shows will remain valid for the new dates. Despite best efforts, due to scheduling conflicts and limited venue availability in April 2018, Ed Sheeran has been forced to cancel his tour dates in Taipei, Seoul, Hong Kong and Jakarta. Ed commented: “A follow-up visit to my doctors today confirmed that I will be good to go from the Singapore shows onwards. Osaka, Tokyo and Manila will be rescheduled for April 2018. My dates in Taipei, Seoul, Hong Kong and Jakarta will sadly need to be cancelled as it’s just been impossible to reschedule these for next year. I’m really gutted that not all the postponed dates could be rescheduled and I am working hard with my team to try and come back to these places as soon as I can to see all of you.

  • NOIJZU Swiss Electroacoustic Unit
    NOIJZU Swiss electroacoustic unit PROJECT DOSSIER 17 December 2020 TABLE OF CONTENTS 3 Project Description 6 Documentation 10 Biographies 18 Musicians, Contact 1 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Physical musicality is evoked by a habitat, which foreshadows diverse sound spaces. A musical examination focuses on recognition of domesticated and undomesticated sounds, ideologies, networking senses and physical entities. Each sound identifies itself, through varied behaviours. Noijzu is a Swiss electroacoustic unit, formed in late 2017 by Luis Sanz and Urs Heer. Noijzu began as a noise duo, using voice, guitar, objects and drums, within this setup Noijzu released two albums and participated in three compilations. By late 2018 the Chinese clarinetist Shuyue Zhao, resident in Bern, Switzerland, becomes part of the group. The new duo by Zhao and Sanz focuses on acoustic and computer-generated sonic entities. Noijzu blends the bass clarinet with digital signals to produce contrasting acoustic dynamics, from minimal to extreme confrontational expressions, creating complex and hyperreal textures. Noijzu's sound has been described as "a symphony of fragmented noise". Zhao and Sanz have been experimenting with various artistic approaches to explore and challenge the limit of musical possibilities. Besides interpreting new compositions as a clarinetist, Shuyue Zhao has been active in improvisation since 2012. In 2018 she has expanded her artistic practice from acoustic clarinet improvisation to combinations of amplified clarinet/bassclarinet and feedback-based electronic sounds. Luis Sanz has been working with video and abstract animations since 2010.
