Jazz On Vinyl, Vol. 5 – Carolyn Breuer & Andrea Hermenau (Vinil 180g, LP)

With Vol.5 Jazz On Vinyl presents two multiple award-winning Munich power women: Saxophonist Carolyn Breuer, who has caused an international sensation with many of her own projects such as „Four Seasons Of Life” or „Shoot The Piano Player” and pianist/vocalist Andrea Hermenau, known for bands such as „Etna” or „Die Drei Damen” and winner of the 2021 Kulturförderpreis Musik of the City of Munich. On their joint new record they can be heard as a duo as well as a quartet, accompanied by an excellent rhythm section consisting of Henning Sieverts (double bass) and Christian Lettner (drums).

The recordings were made in the music school in Rottach-Egern (Fred & Irmgard Rauch Hall) and in the large hall of the Bürgerhaus Unterföhring. The dry „studio sound” in Rottach-Egern gives the two duo pieces White Marble and Mimo is back a very direct touch. Especially White Marble lets Carolyn Breuer’s very exact and virtuosic playing style come out wonderfully in this setting. Mimo is back inspires with the fine voice and fantastic scatting of Andrea Hermenau.

All pieces are original compositions of the musicians and were played live and without editing on the A 807.

We recommend the use of „L’Art du Son” LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
