Wolfgang Muthspiel | Louis Sclavis & Benjamin Moussay

In the organizer's words:

Wolfgang Muthspiel

• Wolfgang Muthspiel - Guitar

One musician, two worlds: In his solo concert, Wolfgang Muthspiel spans the gap between his musical homelands, the classical guitar and jazz improvisation. Muthspiel, a "shining light of the contemporary jazz guitar generation" (The New Yorker), has already worked with greats such as Brad Mehldau, Dave Liebman, Larry Grenadier and Eric Harland. He comes to Jazzfest Bonn with his latest album "Etudes/Quietudes", on which he combines specially composed concert etudes with improvisations on ideas ranging from Bach to Bill Evans and Paul Motian. Muthspiel effortlessly transforms the technically demanding originals into the most intimate music, sometimes glamorous and sparkling, sometimes poetically introspective.

Louis Sclavis & Benjamin Moussay

• Louis Sclavis - bass clarinet
• Benjamin Moussay - piano

They are two of the most outstanding voices on the European jazz scene: clarinettist Louis Sclavis and pianist Benjamin Moussay are coming to Bonn for an intimate duo concert. In their current program - with original compositions by both musicians - they blend chamber music elegance with joyful improvisation. Always in dialog, they create flowing, lyrical worlds of sound, interspersed with surprising, whimsical moments. A musical complicity that has already inspired numerous albums on the renowned ECM label and promises an evening full of creativity and intensity!
