Description
Reissue of the Rolf Kühn Orchestra's gently-grooving 1979 album 'Symphonic Swampfire', featuring Joachim Kühn, Philip Catherine, Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, Charlie Mariano, Herb Geller and others.
For a German jazz musician to find international recognition as a major player has been and remains a rarity. Clarinetist Rolf Kühn belongs to this elite class. No one sounds like him on the clarinet; warm, round and masterful, his tone remains unmistakable no matter what style he may be playing at any given moment. His play resonates with a maturity and wisdom gathered from a long and rich life of musical experiences.
Inspired by the captivating and breathtaking landscape of Ibiza, which Rolf Kühn discovered for the first time in 1970, the album 'Symphonic Swampfire' was created in 1978. Rolf Kühn had spent many summers in Ibiza, his brother Joachim is now living there since several years. After Kühn had written orchestral compositions for commissioned works for film, TV and radio productions, he was able to fulfill his long-standing wish to record one of his jazz albums with an orchestra. 'Symphonic Swampfire' is the first collaboration with sound engineer Walter Quintus, with whom Rolf and Joachim Kühn should collaborate many more times.
