Description: | Christian Muthspielâ??s â??Orjazztra Viennaâ? with recordings from Vienna jazz club â??Porgy & Bessâ?
The ensemble mainly consists of musicians who are, for the most part, a generation younger than he is
and the line-up is conspicuously unlike any conventional formation. In writing for this line-up, Muthspiel
immersed himself in the musical styles and vocabulary of the young musicians, who learned their trade in
a very different social and professional setting from those of his vintage. He sees it as â??a voyage of
discovery with 17 young people.â? - Christian Muthspiel/Orjazztra Vienna - "Homecoming (Live)" Muthspiel's work with the "Orjazztra" is all about exploring musical avenues, fathoming the individuals that travel them and then - like an adventurous architect - constructing novel, unique soundscapes where the orchestra's members can live out their passion with equal relish. Listening to the album (recorded in March 2021 during the COVID pandemic), the ensemble's remarkable ability to perform live with such inspiration and intensity, even in the absence of an audience, soon becomes clear. |
