Wolfgang Lackerschmid Quartet
Wolfgang Lackerschmid wrote jazz history at a young age with the album "Ballads for Two" in a duo with Chet Baker. As a vibraphonist and composer, he represents vibrant jazz: virtuosic, humorous, harmonically sophisticated – and always melodic. In the ensemble put together for his 70th birthday, he can stylistically draw from a full palette. It will be funky, groovy, swinging, deep in the ballads, and exhilarating in the uptempo.
