Description
Already for the 18th time, the knowledgeable free jazz drummer Erwin Ditzner performs a Carte Blanche at Enjoy Jazz. Last year, he thrilled the audience with a virtuoso solo concert, and this year he has assembled a very special ensemble: together with one of the legendary founders of European free jazz, the now 88-year-old Alexander von Schlippenbach, with whom Ditzner has already played in a duo and at a previous Carte Blanche, as well as bassist Sebastian Gramms and Christof Thewes on trombone. The four artists, connected across generations through the art of improvisation, will create the music freely in the moment. Completely pure and analog. Ditzner works in his conceptual explorations with rhythmically artistic layering and abrupt breaks, with sound cuttings, solo eruptions, internal formations, and tutti sound forces. Energetic, raw, and at the same time fragile in beauty.
