The long and very fruitful artistic relationship between Thomas Gansch and the ZJO has now been immortalized in a studio recording. This new CD will be presented at Moods on May 22. The program consists exclusively of compositions by Thomas Gansch, arranged by Ed Partyka. In addition to Thomas, the soloists of the ZJO can also be heard extensively. The music is profound and humorous at the same time, combining elements of jazz, classical and folk music with unexpected forays into the world of film music and 20th-century popular culture.

Almost exactly eleven years have passed since Thomas Gansch’s first appearance with the ZJO. Today he is a good friend of the band and a favorite of the ZJO audience. That’s why the basic concept for the joint CD remains the same: musical fireworks, fun, unconventional, crazy. Gansch and the ZJO have already performed everything imaginable together: Gil Evans, Don Ellis, their own material. And Thomas Gansch’s own material can now be heard on the new CD.
