This concert is the result of a constant creative exchange between the jazz scenes of Berlin and Cologne, which has flourished and been in constant motion for many decades.
Since the CD releases on Pirouet and Klaeng, Bastian Stein has enjoyed a long-standing musical collaboration with Phil Donkin. In his trio with James Maddren, they have been developing together for many years a style of playing characterized by openness and intimate interaction: „The musical three-way relationship turns into an exciting affair from the very first note, because the three musicians elevate dense interplay to the lowest common denominator. Stein does not allow himself to be carried away for a moment by playing these offers of interaction with too many notes to circus-like flights of fancy. He uses the chance that this rhythm section offers him, gratefully picks up the balls, plays them back with a fragile tone, dashes forward with a radiant tone and again and again celebrates the high art of omission. Strong album. (Michael Stürm)...
