Xxxx Wollny Michael, Parisien Emile, Lefebvre Tim, Lillinger Christian

This story begins with just one sound, originating in the place which Berlin jazz people think of as their living room, the A-Trane. Back in December 2019, the club was host to four leading figures in today's improvised music scene, who turned this cozy space into their blank canvas, their research lab. In eight sets over four nights, piano phenomenon Michael Wollny, re-inventor of the soprano saxophone Emile Parisien, electric bass icon Tim Lefebvre, and that free spirit of the drum kit Christian Lillinger were given free rein. They had agreed beforehand, incidentally, that nothing should be composed, arranged or pre-planned.

All music improvised by Michael Wollny, Emile Parisien, Tim Lefebvre & Christian Lillinger except "Nostalgia for the Light" written & arranged by Michael Wollny.

Available as cd and lp.
