JAZZ + ROCK KOMMANDO
Thomas Banholzer (tp, flh), Volker Wagner (tsax), Klaus Knöpfle (asax), Tobias Rädle (keyb), Reinhard Stehle (g), Arpi Ketterl (b), Patrick Manzecchi (dr)
Jazz + Rock – der Name ist Programm, denn die unterschiedliche musikalische Herkunft der Mitwirkenden spiegelt sich im Repertoire der 7-köpfigen Band wider, die im Back-Katalog von u.a. Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Marcus Miller, Herbie Hancock, Jimi Hendrix, Maceo Parker und Joe Zawinul auf Schatzsuche geht. Messerscharfe Bläsersätze und befehlsverweigernde Arrangements sind zwei der Erkennungsmerkmale des Jazz und Rock Kommandos. Die Entwicklung eines eigenständigen Bandsounds und die Risikobereitschaft, bei jedem Konzert das Repertoire improvisatorisch neu auszuloten, zwei weitere. Die zweifellos erkennbare musikalische Herkunft der Protagonisten aus Jazz, Rock, Funk und Electronica ist dabei der beharrliche Garant für einzigartige Konzerterlebnisse.
