About the album

The precise lines of the trumpet, the voice, the guitar and the bass on this album are just as fantastic, clear-cut, and bewitchingly sensual. Each note hits home. Or, in the words of the bandleader: 'Our music is peculiar, physical, vulnerable, nuanced, sexy, modest, honest, transparent, direct.' Not a sound is redundant, not a sound is missing. Listeners who surrender to this music and open up to the seemingly unspectacular will be deliciously rewarded. The interplay among the four lines creates a space full of sensuality, a musical imagery, and a highly emotional swing that are erotic from the first note to the last. Sandy Patton's dark and warm voice, in itself, is a pleasure: its timbre, its simplicity, the natural, casual and sometimes almost lascivious way in which it transforms standards into her own, great art. Peter Scharli's trumpet, his brilliant and always perfectly certain tone, soft and snug, far from any harshness or bite, turns every melody into a gem - cool and attractive. Guitarist Antonia Giordano and bassist Thomas Durst play with just as much quality: both receive far too little attention on the jazz scene. With their music, clear as glass, they are much more than the ideal complement. Female jazz guitarists are rare, and Antonia Giordano is unique in her straightforward, unaffected use of the instrument and the way she sometimes uses her voice in parallel. Thomas Durst, who has played with Scharli for years in various groups, is convincing here, too, with his robust, expansive, and grounded bass, his enormous groove, his swing. Don't chagne your hair for me - playing with Eros.
Spielen mit Sinnenfreude
Die exakten Strecken von Trompete, Stimme, Gitarre und dem Bass auf diesem Album sind ebenso fantastisch, klar und bezaubernd sinnlich. Jede Note trifft ins Schwarze. Oder mit den Worten des Bandleaders: "Unsere Musik ist eigenartig, körperlich, anfällig, nuanciert, sexy, bescheiden, ehrlich, transparent, direkt." Kein Ton ist überflüssig, kein Ton fehlt. Hörer, die sich dieser Musik hingeben und sich dem scheinbar Unspektakulären öffnen, werden köstlich belohnt. Das Zusammenspiel schafft einen Raum voller Sinnlichkeit, musikalischer Bildsprache und emotionalem Spielraum, sinnlich von der ersten Note bis zur letzten.
Schon die düstere und warme Stimme von Sandy Patton ist ein Genuss: ihr Timbre, ihre Schlichtheit, die natürliche, lässige und manchmal fast laszive Art, in der sie Standards in ihre eigene, große Kunst verwandelt. Peter Schärli's Trompete, sein brillanter und immer vollkommen sicherer Ton, weich und harmonisch, weit entfernt von Härte und Biss, macht jede Melodie zu einem Juwel - cool und attraktiv. Gitarrist Antonia Giordano und Bassist Thomas Dürst spielen in gleichgestellter Qualität; beide erhalten viel zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit auf die Jazz-Szene. Mit ihrer Musik, klar wie Glas, sind sie viel mehr als die ideale Ergänzung. Weibliche Jazzgitarristen sind selten, und Antonia Giordano ist einzigartig in ihrem direkten, unberührten Gebrauch des Instruments und der Weise, die sie manchmal ihre Stimme parallel benutzt. Thomas Dürst, der seit Jahren in verschiedenen Gruppen mit Schärli gespielt hat, überzeugt auch hier mit seinem robusten, expansiven und geerdeten Bass, seinem enormen Groove, seinem Swing.
