Description
Hans Kennel's new, jazzy chamber music quartet WOOD&BRASS features three generations of adventurous musicians. Featuring the most unusual instrumentation of two trumpets, a trombone, all doubling on alphorn, and a cello, the ensemble produces a new sound enriched by accents set by the unique voice of the cellist.
With fresh sounds, sourced in jazz with a tinge of 'alpine echo' of Kennel's earlier folk music projects, this music brings the listener into a world of contrasts: silence and contemplation, disruption and storm, tradition and improvisation. These elements evoke emotions in a mystic atmosphere creating illusions and dreams. The music partly comes in untempered intonation.
