‘What can we expect from music made by two people who never had heard about each other and who couldn’t be more diverse? I had the luck to be present in this encounter, which happened in Australia early in November 2022. Festival promoter, renowned jazz composer and band leader Mace Francis had invited both of them for a duo performance during the 2022 edition of the International Perth Jazz Festival.

On the day of our departure back to Europe Heinrich and Sophie entered the studio on an early sunny morning. Three weeks earlier the two had successfully used the possibility of exchanging their musical ideas for the first time during a rehearsal at the Queensland Conservatory in Sophie’s now home town Brisbane, on the other side of the continent.

“This new album is very special to me because it shows a beautiful blend of Brazilian music and European jazz in a very organic way. We have been developing the sound of this quartet since 2015 with my meretrio and Heinrich, and it’s great to see the evolution of this band crystallizing with this new live album!”

The second production, “Saxotonics” contains music for saxophone quartet and is closely linked to my work as a professor for saxophone at the University of Music (KUG) in Graz, Austria. Over the years I had composed quite a few works for this format. While working with these incredibly talented young musicians I really enjoyed my dual function as ensemble leader and ensemble member. Additionally I invited my decades-long musical partner, keyboardist and composer Uli Rennert to perform with us, which made it quite an unusual line-up! On top of this he provided a fantastic original composition.

„Möbius Strip“combines two very diverse productions, which compliment each other nicely. On both the saxophone plays the lead.

“Into The Now!” is based on solo improvisations, which I did in 2016 and 2017 in the studio of my good friend, German piano virtuoso Joachim Kühn in Ibiza, Spain. In a second phase, I invited the Austrian bassist Gina Schwarz and drummer Lukas König to come in and lay their improvisations over these solo tracks. This very inspired session was rounded out by the addition of three tracks which we recorded together and where you can also hear me playing solos on the baritone sax for the first time.
