Description:

Â»Ich liebe das KlaviertrioÂ«, sagt die Pianistin Aki Takase. Â»Aber nicht die alte Idee, bei der die Pianistin die KÃ¶nigin ist und Bassist und Schlagzeuger nur Nebenfiguren.Â« TatsÃ¤chlich stehen beimTrio AUGE alle drei Musiker im Fokus. Der Bassist Christian Weber und der Schlagzeuger Michael Griener zÃ¤hlen zu den eigensinnigsten Virtuosen ihres jeweiligen Instruments. Auf Intakt haben Sie mit dem New Yorker Saxofonisten Ellery Eskelyn brillante Alben vorgelegt. Christian Weber spielte Alben ein mit Oliver Lake. Michael Griener wirkt als Mitglied der Bands Die EnttÃ¤schung und Monks Casino mit Alexander von Schlippenbach. Aki Takase hat im Laufe von fast vier Jahrzehnten immer fÃ¼r frische Impulse gesorgt, sei es imDuomit David Murray oder Louis Sclavis oder mit ihren Solo-Aufnahmen Â»My EllingtonÂ« und Â»HokusaiÂ«. - CHRISTIAN WEBER/MICHAEL GRIENER

I really love the piano trio," says Aki Takase, with a passion that mirrors her playing. "But not the old idea, where the pianist is king, and the bassist and the drummer are just sidemen. We are equal." Indeed, all three musicians are in focus in the trio AUGE: bassist Christian Weber and drummer Michael Griener are among the most original virtuosos of their instruments. On Intakt they have presented brilliant albums with the New York saxophonist Ellery Eskelyn. Christian Weber recorded albums with Co Streiff and Oliver Lake. Michael Griener is a member of the band Die Entta¨uschung and Monks Casino with Alexander von Schlippenbach. Over the course of nearly four decades pianist Aki Takase has provided fresh impetus with different musicians such as reedists David Murray and Rudi Mahall or fellow pianist (and husband) Alexander von Schlippenbach. The Berlin-based Chicago journalist Peter Margasak writes about the recording: "The music on the debut album from the collective trio AUGE is wide-open, operating from an unobstructed vista where everything seems possible... Free improvisation rarely sounds so cogent, rippling with an adroit command of rhythm and harmony that erases the line between design and spontaneity.
