Born 1982, he lives and works in Vienna as musician and composer of contemporary jazz-, pop & electronic music. “Clemens Wenger has long become a key figure of the young Viennese scene (…)”, Klaus Nüchtern wrote in his portrait in FALTER. He initiated the ‘JazzWerkstatt Wien’, heads this group of musicians for 16 years now and is a key figure of the successful Viennese soul band ‘5/8erl in Ehr’n’. Recently Wenger published ‘The Urge of Night’ with Mira Lu Kovacs. For this album he wrote special arrangements of Kovacs’ pop songs for a ten-strong ensemble that includes a horn quartet. His last solo album, ‘Neapel’, was shortlisted for the ‘Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik’ in the category Grenzgänge (borderlines). For the ‘Münchner Volkstheater’ he composed the sound track for the acclaimed production of ‘Brave New World’, now in its fourth season and praised by critics and audiences. With his band ‘5/8erl in Ehr´n’ Wenger is a five-times winner of the ‘Amadeus Austrian Music Awards’, most recently in 2020. His second solo album, ‘Physics of Beauty’, will be released on November 6, 2020.
