Description
True in No Possible World is the debut CD of saxophonist and composer Benedict Koch, together with his new quintet, and is the 74th release in the Jazz thing Next Generation series.
The title originates from modal logic, a branch of the logic that deals with the consequences of the modal terms "possible" and "necessary". Benedict Koch is less interested in a deeper meaning, with which his music could be analysed and lifted to an intellectually higher level. "I chose this sentence above all because it fits phonetically to my music."
Koch has created an album full of facets, mild shimmering colours and finely regulated feelings of melancholy all the way to cautious joy with his new quintet: drummer Fabian Arends, the bassist Reza Askari, the trumpeter Matthias Schwengler and the pianist Felix Hauptmann. Koch was born in Darmstadt, studied jazz saxophone from 2009 to 2015 at the University of Music Franz Liszt in Weimar, made a name for himself previously as a member of the Hessian State Youth Jazz Orchestra as well as a prize winner at the national competition "Jugend Jazzt" and now lives in Cologne as a freelance musician.
