Menzel, Suzanne/klaus Ignatzek
View From Above
View from above - the new and second album by this band around Susanne Menzel & Klaus Ignatzek impresses with the incredible depth of the music and the interaction of all those involved. The "view from above" or the view of things and situations, often viewed from a healthy distance. These five musicians have grown together musically, and also in their friendship with one another. The "Song for my brother" - a homage to Klaus Ignatzek's brother - tells of the warm togetherness and interaction between two very different brothers. View from above - sometimes it helps to let go and let yourself be carried away towards something new. All of the lyrics on the album were repeatedly written by Susanne Menzel, Klaus Ignatzek composed all 10 pieces on this CD. The compositions are very diverse and varied and create the basis for extraordinarily interesting, virtuoso music with profound improvisations. Susanne Menzel and Klaus Ignatzek have found congenial partners for their music in Florian Trubsbach(sax), Sven Faller (b) and Christian Schoenefeldt (dr).
