Peter Lehel - Chamber Jazz Quartets (2023)

The quartet of the saxophone player Peter Lehel (Jazz Award Baden -Württemberg in 1997) has celebrated the 20th anniversary in autumn 2016.
This means more than 600 concerts, almost 400 titles and the release of 13 CDs and 2 DoubleCD.
This quartet is the steady working band of Peter Lehel and refers to the tradition of the great jazz quartets.
The compositions especially written for the quartet procure moods and sound pictures which deliver the source for versatile possibilities of expression and much space for the soloists.
Yon can hear clearly structured passages as well as more free concepts of playing.
The quartet`s sound is enriched for example by Lehels lyrical bassclarinet and by the masterly bowed acoustic bass of Mini Schulz.
The musicians are well aware of the jazz history and of the european classical music.
This leads - in addition with joy of playing and improvising - to the unique profile of the quartet.
