Komeda Joachim Kühn New Trio & Atom String Quartet: Jazz At Berlin Philharmonic XIV: Komeda. ACT 9972-2 (Edel)

Released under the simple title “Komeda”, the album documents a deeply emotional and large-scale homage to Krzysztof Komeda, the pioneer of a new European jazz. The pianist Joachim Kühn, a friend from a young age and an admirer of the visionary who died tragically early, looks back on Komeda’s compositions and at the same time uses them as an opportunity to venture into new musical territory with them – in fascinating solo improvisations, with his New Trio and in the successful symbiosis with the equally virtuoso soulful musical Atom String Quartet.
