Biography

With his new trio, Edi Köhldorfer catapults the energy, spirit and optimism of jazz in the 20th century into the 20s of the second millennium and at the same time opens the doors to influences from various global musical cultures. Through Köhldorfer’s intensive engagement with classical music, the “European heritage” remains always present and at the same time is counteracted with improvisation and ensemble interaction. As always, his world influences are also noticeable. Köhldorfer's masterful compositional work takes center stage, creating generous space for rousing improvisations. This dynamic is supported by the internationally renowned drummer Harald Tanschek and the bassist Martin Heinzle, who is also in demand around the world. Together with star guest Gina Schwarz, Edi Köhldorfer presents an all-star lineup on “Hover” that not only interprets his compositions virtuoso, but is also the guitarist's solo sparring partner with wit and sensitivity. Melodies, odd-meter grooves and elaborate arrangements characterize the pieces in this production. Music that always remains exciting because it draws on the past but is uncompromisingly in tune with the times! „A jazz adventure on the verge of the music of tomorrow“
