Description:

Julia HÃ¼lsmann erweitert ihr Quartett mit einer frischen norwegischen Stimme am Horn und prÃ¤sentiert ein Programm gruppeneigener StÃ¼cke, die im Quartett- und QuintettgefÃ¼ge nachdenklich und kreativ ausgelotet werden. Wie auf den vorherigen Alben steuert jedes Quartettmitglied Musik zur Session bei, wobei die Bandleaderin selbst fÃ¼r die HÃ¤lfte des Programms verantwortlich ist. Saxophonist Uli Kempendorffs EinfÃ¼hrung in Julias Trio auf Not Far From Here (2019) brachte bereits eine neue Dimension in das Zusammenspiel der Gruppe â?? dieses GefÃ¼hl wird durch die ErgÃ¤nzung um die norwegische Trompeterin Hildegunn Ã?iseth, die sich der Band auf der Trompete und dem Ziegenhorn fÃ¼r fÃ¼nf StÃ¼cke anschlieÃ?t, um ein Mehrfaches verstÃ¤rkt und ausgebaut. Fesselnder Lyrismus und spielerische rhythmische und melodische Kniffe durchdringen Under The Surface â?? ein weiteres Juwel in Julia HÃ¼lsmanns zunehmend beeindruckendem ECM-Werk. -

Julia Hulsmann's Quartet resurfaces with a fresh Norwegian voice on horn in tow and presents an attractive batch of originals that finds the group thoughtfully exploring common ground with a knack for adventure. As on past outings, each quartet member contributes music to the session, the leader herself being responsible for half the program. Saxophonist Uli Kempendorff's introduction to Julia's trio on 2019's Not Far From Here already brought a new dimension to the group's interplay. This sense is again amplified and expanded upon through the addition of Norwegian trumpeter Hildegunn Oiseth. Spellbinding lyricism and playful rhythmic and melodic interaction conspire throughout Under The Surface, a gem in Julia Hulsmann's increasingly impressive ECM oeuvre.
