This CD is extremely well thought out in it’s form, from beginning to end it – is not just a bunch of compositions just thrown together. It is truly a journey of the heart and mind.
What impresses me most about the band is the fact that these guys move from mood to mood effortlessly and are not afraid to try anything. Also the compositions and arrangements (most are by Rainer Böhm, but also Steffen Weber’s and Axel Schlosser’s) are extremely original and inventive and fit like a glove together – this is truly a “band”. Those who say there is nothing new or adventurous in 21st century jazz should check out this CD. All involved are absolutely first rate well-trained artists who at a young age have already found their inner voices both playing-wise and compositionally. Quite amazing indeed.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing a lot more from everyone involved!
