about

On the debut album "Konfrontation" the title is program. Four very different works confront each other in strong contrasts and span a wide arc around the musical globe of the 20th century. At the center of the album is "Konfrontation" by Wolfgang Bartsch - in the titular work for prepared guitar, bell-like sound worlds and percussive, nasal rhythms collide. But the clash is also already inherent in the other works: Impressionism meets Mexican folklore (Sonata III), Anatolian music resounds through the filter of a Western instrument and composer (Koyunbaba), the cathedral in Montevideo and the hustle and bustle of the city are contrasted as opposing inspirations (Catedral).

Between the guitar works, one can listen to recordings of a Moroccan trip, which are both resting points and transitions between the compositions: a fountain full of frogs near a harvest festival, singing canaries on a busy main street, improvising street musicians in Casablanca, and the breaking waves at the Hassan II. Mosque.

"Konfrontation" was released in 2019 by Aliso Records (Bremen).
