The Konrad Koselleck Big Band is something else. Time and again band leader Koselleck finds adventurous combinations of jazz, cabaret, pop, rock, Latin and even classical music. This special edition, which will be recorded for a CD release, features the band’s soloists. They shine with improvisations in Kosselleck’s original and remarkable arrangements and compositions. ‘Koselleck has a keen sense of atmosphere, he knows when to slow down or fire up the band… this ecstatic big band plays with phenomenal conviction’ (de Volkskrant).
