How out of Frl. Mayer came Frl. Mayer's Hinterhausjazzer:

- 1896 Hedwig Mayer was born

- 1969 Michael Rox took up residence in her courtyard terrace house ("Hinterhaus")

- 1971 His appartment there became a meeting place for jazz-mad students - and - (after certain birth pains) "The" band was born - a band that now boasts a fanclub with a multi-national-membership list.

Over the years since their first appearance in 1974 has developed the inimitable "Hinterhaus-style" heard today. "Music that lived and felt", as one critic penetratingly wrote; or, as listeners repeatedly confirm: "You can feel they don't have to prove anything to themselves or to the audience - they're simply having a great time with their music. Ten long playing recordings document the professionalism of these seven musicians; however, perhaps it is because they have retained their wholehearted enthusiasm for their music. Their dynamic performances - including over 100 Radio an T. V. broadcasts and countless club, Festival, Gala and concert appearances - have won the hearts of audiences all over the world.
