UWE OBERG & SILKE EBERHARD TURNS Uwe Oberg piano Silke Eberhard alto saxophone, clarinet Silke Eberhard and Uwe Oberg play compositions by Carla Bley, Annette Peacock, Jimmy Giuffre and originals. Music related to Paul Bley: perhaps a homage. Musical trails has been left and small revolutions triggered. Oberg & Eberhard take them up and lead them without sentimentality to today. SILKE EBERHARD *1972 Alto saxophonist and clarinetist Silke Eberhard has studied at the Musikhochschule Hanns Eisler in Berlin, followed by David Liebman´s masterclass in the USA, and the Jazz Workshop + Residency at the Banff Centre of the Arts in Canada. In 2004/2005 she was a guest-professor at the Ponitificia Universidad Javeriana de Bogotá in Colombia. Besides her longstanding Trio with Jan Roder on bass and Kay Lübke on drums, current projects are the Duo OCA with pianist Aki Takase and Potsa Lotsa – a lineup of horns, play the complete compositions of Eric Dolphy. She has performed and/or recorded with musicians such as Ulrich Gumpert, David Liebman, Johannes Bauer, Sabine Worthmann, Günter Baby Sommer, Dave Burrell, Gerry Hemingway, Petra Krumphuber, Alex Huber, Michael Zerang, Louis Rastig, Niko Meinhold, Antonis Anissegos, Terry Lyne Carrington, Hannes Zerbe, Olaf Rupp, NeWt Trio a.m.o. Eberhard has also been involved in interdisciplinary projects, especially in combination with theater or dance. She has toured Europe, Middle East, North Africa, USA, Canada, Colombia, Brasil, Japan and China. “Her mastery of both instruments is impressive, but so is her take on music: it is fun, it is light- footed, rhythmically and structurally complex, emotional and technically superb.” (Freejazz Stef) UWE OBERG *1962, piano since 1970, member of the Kooperative New Jazz (ARTist) Wiesbaden, active since the early 80ies in various fields from conceptual Jazz/New Music to free improvisation, performances with dance/theatre/lyrics, music for silent movies, HumaNoise Congress, cooperation with international musicians: ALFRED HARTH, TONY OXLEY, PETER KOWALD, URS LEIMGRUBER, SAADET TÜRKÖZ, HEINZ SAUER, SUBROTO ROY CHOWDHURY, XU FENGXIA, SVEN-AKE JOHANSSON, RUDI MAHALL, PAUL LOVENS, EVAN PARKER, ERIC PLANDÉ, PAUL ROGERS a.m.o. He leads the trio LACY POOL (w Rudi Mahall & Michael Griener) playing exclusively the music of Steve Lacy. Also he plays in various improvising ensembles, such as CUSH w Saadet Türköz and Paul Lovens. In 2004 he has been invited to the Darmstadt Workshop for New Music and the Warzaw Autumn. Numerous Cd’s. „Oberg possesses a unique approach: at times frugal, at others erratic or classical. Here is a man as comfortable with one hand on the keys and the other in the belly of his grand piano beast as he is delicately playing by the rules with both hands on deck.” (London Jazz News) Concert dates: 13.11. 2015, Wiesbaden, Rudersport 26.2.2016, Wiesbaden, Just Music (w Gerry Hemingway) 9.7.2016, Singen, Jazzclub Uwe Oberg Herderstr. 21 65185 Wiesbaden / Germany 0049 - 611 / 401554 [email protected].

UWE Obergs LACY POOL Uwe Oberg Piano / Rudi Mahall Clarinets / Michael Griener Drums
UWE OBERGs LACY POOL Uwe Oberg piano / Rudi Mahall clarinets / Michael Griener drums Just released! LACY POOL_2 (Leo Records / London) LACY POOL was founded by German pianist Uwe Oberg. With an intriguing lineup with the Berlin-based clarinettist Rudi Mahall and drummer Michael Griener, the band explores different styles in Steve Lacy's music and Oberg's compositions. It's a joyful celebration as well as an deconstruction, that transfers the Lacy's pieces into the present. Fresh and inquisitive. JAZZWEEKLY July 2017 “On Lacy Pool, an intriguing lineup (piano-trombone-drums) revisit what might one day become standards - 10 compositions penned by Steve Lacy. Uwe Oberg's angular lines, Christof Thewes' soaring trombone and drummer Michael Griener's clever support help bring out the joy that inhabits those pieces. Their truculent nods at Dixieland or Thelonious Monk are a reminder of how both influences informed the late soprano sax player's development. They never get lost in a meditative state, because Oberg and company's mood is definetely more celebratory than mournful. To sum up, this is an excellent addition to the recent tributes paid to Lacy's legacy that will surely inspire more generations to come. DOWNBEAT, December 2010 Great players, luminously entertaining album. TOUCHING EXTREMES, Okt. 2010 Confirming that the music of a true original like Lacy is best celebrated by adding to it rather than copying, the three leap into the Lacy Pool at the deep end. Accepting this challenge, they still manage an Olympic medal-like performance. KEN WAXMAN, March 2010 This refreshing and innovative, forward-thinking look on Steve Lacy's music is imaginatively clever as it is delightful.

Irène Schweizer Catalogue
IRÈNE SCHWEIZER INTAKT RECORDS Irène Schweizer writes jazz history, and this catalogue documents the musical work of the jazz pianist. Demonstrating a responsibility for the music, Intakt Records, in collaboration with the artist, has made a carefully curated selection of work accessible. Given the abundance of artistic production, this is a project that is still far from being completed. The compilation reveals the main focuses of Irène Schweizer’s music. The great solo recordings, which present the broad spectrum of the musician. The piano-drums works with the most important percussionists in jazz today. The feminist mani- festos with musicians like Joëlle Léandre, Maggie Nicols, Marilyn Crispell and Co Streiff. The close connection to the tradition of black American jazz with Don Cherry, John Tchicai, Andrew Cyrille, Hamid Drake, Fred Anderson and George Lewis. The love for South African jazz with Louis Moholo. And Irène Schweizer, the European, in collaboration with Pierre Favre, Barry Guy, Han Bennink, Günter Baby Sommer, Jürg Wickihalder, Omri Ziegele. Capturing all of this creativity is an ongoing pursuit that will take many years. A long journey into the depth and breadth of Irène Schweizer’s improvisation which we endeavour to undertake for the benefit of the listener. Intakt Records IRÈNE SCHWEIZER Irène Schweizer schreibt Jazzgeschichte. Der vorliegende Werkkatalog dokumentiert die musikalische Arbeit der Jazzpia- nistin.

The Secret Gardeners: An Ethnography of Improvised Music in Berlin (2012-13) Tom Arthurs PhD Music The University of Edinburgh 2015 Abstract This thesis addresses the aesthetics, ideologies and practicalities of contemporary European Improvised Music-making - this term referring to the tradition that emerged from 1960s American jazz and free jazz, and that remains, arguably, one of today's most misunderstood and under-represented musical genres. Using a multidisciplinary approach drawing on Grounded Theory, Ethnography and Social Network Analysis, and bounded by Berlin's cosmopolitan local scene of 2012-13, I define Improvised Music as a field of differing-yet-interconnected practices, and show how musicians and listeners conceived of and differentiated between these sub-styles, as well as how they discovered and learned to appreciate such a hidden, ‘difficult’ and idiosyncratic artform.

Malaby-Friedli-Griener Biographien
Malaby-Friedli-Griener 2012 erhielt ich von Patrik Landolt die Gelegenheit am Intakt-Festival im New Yorker Jazz-Club Stone, eine neue Besetzung zu prasentieren. Der Berliner Schlagzeuger Michael Griener, mit dem ich bereits vorher einmal zusammenspielte und ich, luden den von uns hochgeschatzten Tenorsaxophonisten Tony Malaby dazu ein. Diese Premiere geriet so traumwandlerisch, spannend und leichtfussig, dass wir uns ein paar Monate spater, bereits wieder zu einem Konzert, diesmal in Zurich trafen. 2013, ein Jahr darauf, spielten wir einige Konzerte in der Schweiz, u.a. am unerhort!Festival in Zurich. Jeder Auftritt ist einzigartig, unterschiedlich und unvorhersehbar. Wir improvisieren, nehmen unsere eigene Stimmung, die des Publikums, des Raumes auf und formen Kompositionen aus dem Moment, die von einer sensiblen und wachen Kommunikation leben, der keine Grenzen gesetzt sind; zarte Melodien wechseln ab mit kraftvollen groovigen Passagen, es eroffnen sich geheimnissvolle Klangraume, die sich in abstrakte Tonskulpturen verwandeln und vielleicht wieder im pulsierenden Swing enden. Das musikalische Zuhause des Trios reicht vom Jazz bis in die Neue Musik. Der betorende Sound von Tony Malaby, seine schier endlosen Moglichkeiten auf seinen Saxofonen, das hochkaratige und facettenreiche Spiel von Michael Griener und die, nebst traditionellem Klavierspiel, praparierten Klange aus dem Flugelinnern entfuhren die ZuhorerInnen auf eine abenteuerliche Reise, in der immer wieder magische Momente entstehen und tiefes musikalisches Einverstandnis den Boden bereitet zum Abheben in alle Richtungen! Biographien Tony Malaby *64, Tenor-und Sopransaxophon, lebt in New York Ursprunglich aus Tucson in Arizona kommend, lebt Tony Malaby seit 1995 in New York und wurde Mitglied vieler namhafter Formationen: Charlie Haden Liberation Orchestra, Paul Motion's Electric Bebop Band, Mark Helias 'Open Loose', Fred Hersch Quintett u.v.a.

Intakt Records Catalogue 2015
INTAKT RECORDS CATALOGUE 2015 253 30 Jahre Intakt Records. 253 Veröffentlichungen sind es im Frühling 2015, keine runde Zahl. Wir sind mitten im Prozess. Der Katalog in dieser Form ist morgen schon überholt. Die Musik ist im Fluss, und die Produktionsarbeit geht weiter. «First Meeting» heisst das erste Stück der ersten Platte von Intakt Records, aufgenommen 1984: Ein Duo der Zürcher Pianistin Irène Schweizer mit dem Chicagoer/New Yorker Posaunisten George Lewis eröffnet die Intakt-Serie auf «Irène Schweizer Live at Taktlos». Die Schallplatte erscheint 1986 und ist die Initialzündung für das neue Label. Es folgt das Doppelalbum mit den Kompositio- nen von Barry Guy und Anthony Braxton, gespielt vom London Jazz Composers Orchestra. Bereits die ersten Schritte situieren Intakt Records in der aktuellen Jazzentwicklung zwischen Kompositi- on und Improvisation und der höchst spannenden gegenseitigen Inspirierung zweier musikali- scher Traditionen: Europa und USA. Wir betrachten jedes künstlerische Werk, jede CD als eine kreative Erweiterung der musikalischen Welt. Der Katalog reflektiert die musikalischen Entwicklungen der letzten dreissig Jahre: die wun- derbaren Abenteuer der längst unüberschaubaren stilistischen Öffnungen der Post-Avantgarden, die neuen spannenden Verbindungen jazzorientierter Spielweisen hin zu ethnischen Musikformen, zu rockorientierten Spielweisen und zur Integration von Elementen der europäischen Avantgarde sowie die kontinuierliche Neubestimmung der grossen Jazztradition der USA. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die Musikerinnen und Musiker. Der Katalog zeigt die Kontinuität einer lang- jährigen Zusammenarbeit mit einem wachsenden Kreis von MusikerInnen. Sie bestimmen die Rich- tung. Die 253 CDs folgen ihren Wegen. Als Verleger setzen wir Akzente, bauen Brücken, schmieden langfristig Pläne und sind – zusammen mit den HörerInnen – die kritischen Begleiter, die respekt- vollen Anreger und Ermutiger, immer wieder als Lernende und als Beschenkte.
