Through Music Video Distributors

8-Apr-05

Music Video Distributors and Inakustik are pleased to announce the home viewing release of Friedemann ñ The Concert for US distribution on DVD. This live DVD includes Friedemannís very own, subtle instrumental music, with the very best from folk, jazz and pop and a touch of chamber music, recorded live at Stuttgart Theaterhaus. There are, however, also moments which refer to experiments by the new composer John Cage, such as ""Sparks"", a composition for six gas lighters, or the stick fight by the two percussionists Markus Faller and Emmanuel SÈjournÈ (""Venin"") which receives frenzied applause every time. The ensemble plays with intensity and improvises in the best jazz style. Saxophonist Philipp Geiss makes his electrifying appearances, whilst keyboarder Kurt Eisfeld prefers to remain in the background, forming the musical framework.
