Description

Christoph Erbstösser focuses mainly on the African roots of jazz : rhythm, the spirituality of the blues; what John Coltrane and the West-African singers from the minstrel tradition have in common : a certain looseness, choosing notes to underpin a story as opposed to a system.

The starting point behind the music on this CD is the spirit of storytellers across the world. It amply proves that artistic value and accessibility can go hand in hand, that jazz does not have to be hermetic at all. Jos Machtel and Dré Pallemaerts are Erbstösser's two highly musical and professionally gifted compagnons de route.
