The German saxophonist Denis Gäbel comes from a musical family, so it is no wonder that he began his musical journey at a young age. After taking his first musical steps with the cello and the piano, it wasn’t long before he finally discovered the saxophone. At the age of 13, Denis won first prize at the national competition “Jugend jazzt” and it was during this time that he first discovered the music of Charles Mingus. “I had my first contact with the music of Mingus at the age of 13 at the JungendJazzWorkshop NRW. Since then I have been a passionate fan of his work. The first Mingus album I heard was his “Blues and Roots” and it is still my favourite album to this day,” Denis explains.

With the Mingus Sessions, Denis Gäbel shows that he is not only a musician of the highest calibre, but also has the ability to assemble a great line-up to tell this story of Charles Mingus’ music. The performances are spontaneous and capture the zeitgeist of the classic Mingus recordings while looking forward.
