Description
In the 70s and 80s, Punk and Bossa Nova were merged into an
exciting new genre called Nouvelle Vague. Thirty years later,
Maximilian Geller has given birth to an equally adventurous and
unique blend of styles: folkmusic-jazz. It is taking you home
and to faraway places at the same time, to alpine cabins and
basement jazz clubs all at once.
It took some time before Geller had gathered the courage to
create folkmusic-jazz. And truth be told, the thought of this
renowned saxophonist, regarded as a jazz icon from Munich to
New York, playing Austrian landlers and jodlers, does sound
crazy. And yet, the idea is not quite as mad as one might
initially think. After all, Geller is a Swiss citizen and grew up as
a child of the alps. Waltzes, traditional tunes and alpine nursery
rhymes would be his favourites long before he came to
appreciate Django Reinhardt.
