Kyrillis

In planning the Kyrillis recording session, it was decided that one of Europe's most original musicians, violinist Dominique Pifarely, would be invited to record with the trio. This French musician is well known throughout Europe for his work with Louis Sclavis, Joachim Kuhn and many other outstanding jazz performers. Lemke/Nendza/Hillmann were pleased that Dominique accepted their invitation and they were most happy to include his wonderful and often adventuresome talents on five selections. Through hard work, dedication and numerous rehearsals and concerts, Lemke/Nendza/Hillmann have succeeded in achieving an inviable level of maturity that is imminently evident in all of their performances. Johannes Lemke (alto & soprano saxophone), André Nendza (acoustic bass, bass-slitdrum), Christoph Hillmann (drums, percussion) with special guest Dominique Pifarély (violin, tracks 1/3/5/7/9). Tracks: Moody Bits / Kyrillis / Bogdan & the Bulgarian Wedding Stompers / Wellenbad / Dahabib / Les Parents / Morsing / Its So Neat / Chez Henri / Dunia / Steves Back / Von Mensch & Maß.
