Jazz vocalist Anne Hartkamp introduces her new quintet, her original compositions making up a large part of the repertoire - nimbly virtuosic melodies, intricate counterpoints, hypnotic bass ostinatos, translucent ballads, offering plenty of space for interaction, for spur-of-the-moment communication. The vocals operate at times in the traditional „singer“’s role, then again more on the instrumental side, in dialogue with the band: Claudius Valk, saxophones, Thomas Rückert, piano, André Nendza, bass, and Oliver Rehmann, drums are all excellent soloists while at the same time masters of interplay, thus creating a relaxedly contemporary, intense, buoyant, and intoxicating kind of music, full of surprises.
