„Since our album „Seven Lively Conversations“ was released in 2012, we have met regularly to make music and continue to engage in intense musical conversations. The topics of these conversations were and are mostly drawn from the vast repertoire of the „Great American Songbook“, because this is still the „common“ language of jazz through all eras that the four of us have been speaking for a long time and in which we feel at home as an ensemble....

„Since our album „Seven Lively Conversations“ was released in 2012, we have met regularly to make music and continue to engage in intense musical conversations. The topics of these conversations were and are mostly drawn from the vast repertoire of the „Great American Songbook“, because this is still the „common“ language of jazz through all eras that the four of us have been speaking for a long time and in which we feel at home as an ensemble.
As with many musical encounters with the character of a jam session, we take a consciously high risk each time to create intense music that is new to us at the moment, to experience interesting/fulfilling moments and to engage freely and openly with the musical material.
Many of the characteristics of a discussion or conversation that are also present in normal language appear in our improvisations: talking to each other/against each other/through each other, putting forward theses and counter-theses and explaining or rejecting them, supporting each other, interrupting each other, forming and breaking up groups and, ideally, coming to a common consensus. What happens all the time, however, is that we talk to each other respectfully. We hope that we can bring this culture of talking, created in an intimate setting, to you at LOFT.
See you on February the 6th, 2024!“
Nils Tegen, December 2023 / January 2024
