"Two musicians representing two different generations of guitarists have found their common denominator: timeless compositions, played with metronomic certitude and a clear sense of swing. With tremendous musical sensitivity and without rivalry the two guitarists cover a wide stylistic field from the music of the 1930s until today. Delta Blues meets Django Reinhardt's gypsy heart – a sonic delicacy, to be recommended not only to those obsessed with the guitar."
Bruno Spoerri (Swiss jazz legend)


Werner Fischer and Michael Giger have been working together regularly since summer 2006 to their audience's & their own great pleasure and satisfaction. Their repertoire ranges from classical jazz songs of the Great American Songbook to popular movie themes and contemporary Americana. They interpret their music with the nonchalance of jazz - yet always with a modern and sensual attitude. All Standard Guitars combine the stupendous virtuosity of the younger with the well-seasoned swing of the older player. The melody & the song are always at the center of their musical interaction.

Michael Giger (Absolvent der Jazzschule Luzern) und Werner Fischer (Berklee Alumnus) arbeiten seit Sommer 2006 regelmässig zusammen. Die beiden Gitarristen erwecken mit ihrer mitreissenden Art bekannte und weniger bekannte Melodien aus dem Great American Song Book, grosse Filmmusikthemen und zeitgenössische Americana zu neuem Leben. Sie interpretierten diese Musik mit jazziger Lockerheit, aber immer modern und sinnlich. Bei All Standard Guitars treten die stupende Virtuosität des jüngeren und der abgeklärte Swing des älteren Musikers in einen aussagekräftigen Dialog. In dessen Zentrum steht der Song, das Lied, die Melodie.
Bruno Spoerri, Musiker: "Zwei Musiker aus zwei verschiedenen Gitarristen-Generationen haben einen gemeinsamen Nenner gefunden: zeitlose Kompositionen, gespielt mit metronomischer Sicherheit und dennoch klarem Swing. Mit hohem musikalischem Gespür und ohne Rivalität spielen sich die zwei Gitarristen durch ein weites stilistisches Feld von den Dreissigerjahren bis heute. Delta Blues meets Django Reinhardt's gypsy heart - ein akustischer Leckerbissen, empfehlenswert nicht nur für Gitarrenbesessene."

"Due chitarristi, rappresentanti di due generazioni diverse, che trovano l'interesse comune per le composizioni intramontabili suonate con certezza metrica e un chiaro senso dello Swing. Con incredibile sensibilità musicale e senza rivalità, i due chitarristi percorrono un ampio tracciato stilistico che va dagli anni '30 fino ai giorni nostri. Il Delta Blues incontra il cuore gitano di Django Reinhardt - una delizia sonora, fortemente raccomandato anche a coloro che non sono ossessionati dalla chitarra" (Bruno Spoerri, leggenda del Jazz svizzero)

Werner Fischer e Michael Giger lavorano insieme dall'estate 2006, per la gioia del pubblico e per il proprio piacere personale. Il loro repertorio spazia dai brani del jazz più classico della grande tradizione americana a temi popolari di colonne sonore cinematografiche e di contemporanei americani. Essi interpretano la loro musica con la disinvoltura del jazz, pur mantenendo costante un atteggiamento moderno e sensuale. Nel duo "All Standard Guitars" s'incontrano la straordinaria virtuosità del più giovane Giger con lo swing più maturo di Fischer. La melodia e il brano sono sempre al centro della loro interazione musicale.
