Christian Krischkowsky Quartet
Organiser ROXY gGmbH:
The CHRISTIAN KRISCHKOWSKY QUARTET combines the appeal of special, creative ideas with positive band spirit.
The music flows, everything feels completely natural, and the foursome of drummer Christian Krischkowsky from Ulm and his musically strong Berlin team colleagues Peter Ehwald (sax), Marc Schmolling (p) and Roland Fidezius (b) move effortlessly between composition and improvisation, between jazz tradition and modernity. Expressive melodies move over contemporary, partly hip-hop inspired rhythms, but edgy swinging influences such as Thelonious Monk can also be heard.
Even if the drummer's sometimes unconventional, imaginative compositions and arrangements are challenging in various ways, they never seem contrived. On the contrary: many have a strong atmospheric power. There are lyrical moments and playful ones. The material is explored in open interaction with captivating dramaturgy and dynamics.
After the two albums "DIGITAL IMMIGRANT" (nominated for the German Record Critics' Award) and "THE END OF MELANCHOLISM", the four musicians have grown and matured even more musically together. With "DISCOVERY OF LIGHTNESS" (Doubelmoon/Challenge international) they now present their current third album with new exciting music.
