"Jazz comes alive again here: Heinz Sauer, the grandmaster of the saxophone, meets Michael Wollny, a rising star in German piano jazz." - (DIE ZEIT)
Quarterly Award of the German Record Critics' Award 2/2005
Heinz Sauer
Heinz Sauer, born in 1932, is considered a "giant"
(FAZ) and a "master of the saxophone" (DIE ZEIT).
The tenor saxophonist has preserved his creativity and
vital, unpredictable playing style to this day. Since his early days performing
alongside Albert Mangelsdorff, he has been at the heart of European jazz
history and is regarded as a foundational figure in German jazz.
As a member of the hr-Jazzensemble, in his long-standing
collaboration with pianist Bob Degen, and since 1999 in a duo with Michael
Wollny, Heinz Sauer has always sought the highest level of expression on his
instrument. Through mutual inspiration, he has celebrated the freedom of modern
jazz.
