BEYOND (Wickihalder - Guy - Niggli)
Jürg Wickihalder: ts, ss
Barry Guy: bass
Lucas Niggli: drums
This trio unites three leading European musicians from different generations, each with his own musical biography: three sound artists, three virtuoso instrumentalists, three breathtaking improvisers.
Wickihalder takes the "lead" in the trio. He wrote the compositions. Wickihalder is how a British journalist wrote, a "Master of Melody". His compositions - colored, sounded drunk and edgy at the same time - are starting points for musical dialogues, for adventurous trips into the sparkling music of improvisation of today's contemporary jazz.
