Diverse Projekte in Jazz, Pop, Klassik, Elektronik und experimenteller Impro beeinflussten Chasper Wanner in den letzten Jahren und machten ihn zu einem vielseitigen und kreativen Musiker. In den Kompositionen auf der neuen CD lässt er seine Liebe zur Klangmalerei mit kammermusikalischer Lyrik verschmelzen - die Musik im stetigen Wechsel mit griffigen Themen, improvisierten Parts und Sounds - und leistet damit einen spannenden Beitrag zur modernen Jazzmusik. Ausschlaggebend für die neue CD war das Interesse des hervorragenden Drummers Danny Gottlieb (USA) an den in den letzten drei Jahren entstandenen Kompositionen von Chasper Wanner. Zusammen mit ihm, dem Bassisten Wolfgang Zwiauer (CH) und dem Saxophonisten Alex Hendriksen (CH) lancierte Chasper Wanner das gemeinsame Projekt, welches im Juni 2004 in Basel aufgezeichnet wurde und nun mit der neuen CD vorliegt. "Chasper Wanner is a wonderful musician and I had a fantastic experience participating in this project! I hope everyone will enjoy this exciting and special combination of musicians and material." - Danny Gottlieb [Fuer audio-samples: www.noretro.ch] ****************************************************************************** Various projects ranging from Jazz to Pop, Classical, Electronics and experimental Impro have influenced Chasper Wanner and turned him into the creative all-round musician that he is. His compositions on the new CD show his love for sound colouring and lyrical chamber-music, in constant change with catchy melodies, improvisation and sounds, and he succeeded in making an exciting contribution to modern jazz music. The decisive factor to record the new material was the exceptional drummer Danny Gottlieb (USA) who was very interested in Chasper Wanner’s recent compositions. They decided to record the new CD, which is now available, together with the bass player Wolfgang Zwiauer (CH) and the sax player Alex Hendriksen (CH) in Basel in June 2004. "Chasper Wanner is a wonderful musician and I had a fantastic experience participating in this project! I hope everyone will enjoy this exciting and special combination of musicians and material." - Danny Gottlieb [For audio-samples: www.noretro.ch] ****************************************************************************** Chasper Wanner est un musicien créatif et éclectique. Ses influences vont du Jazz à la musique Pop, en passant par le Classique ainsi que l’improvisation expérimentale et électronique. Les compositions figurant sur ce CD mettent en valeur son goût des sons colorés. Son style, alliant mélodies captivantes et improvisation, apporte sans conteste une contribution marquante au jazz moderne. Danny Gottlieb , batteur hors du commun (U.S.A), a été conquis par ce style. Avec Chasper Wanner, ils ont décidé d'enregistrer ses compositions les plus récentes, sur un CD désormais disponible. Le bassiste Wolfgang Zwiaurer (CH)et le saxophoniste Alex Hendriksen (CH) viennent enrichir cet enregistrement fait à Bâle/Suisse en Juin 2004. ****************************************************************************** Vari progetti di musica jazz, pop, elettronica e di improvvisazione sperimentale hanno influenzato Chasper Wanner negli ultimi anni, ed è grazie questi che è diventato un musicista versatile e creativo. Le composizioni presenti nel suo nuovo CD rivelano il suo amore per la pittura del suono e per la musica lirica da camera, e sorprendono con temi avvincenti e passaggi e suoni improvvisati. La partecipazione eccezionale del drummer Danny Gottlieb (USA) e' stata determinante per le composizioni di Chasper Wanner. Insieme con il bassista Wolfang Zwiauer (CH) e con il sassofonista Alex Hendrisken (CH), Chasper Wanner (chitarra acustica) ha lanciato il progetto musicale, registrato nel giugno 2004 a Basilea, ed oggi disponibile su CD. I musicisti del Quartetto suonano con vivacità e spontaneità ed e' evidente come le improvvisazioni di Chasper Wanner abbiano contribuito a determinare il "nuovo jazz". “Chasper Wanner è un musicista meraviglioso ed ho passato dei momenti fantastici con questo progetto. Spero che piacerà a tutti questa combinazione di musicisti e materiale musicale del tutto speciali ed emozionanti.” - Danny Gottlieb [per ascoltare i brani: www.noretro.ch]
