Klaus Koenig has worked as a sound engineer at Radio Studio Zurich since the 1960s and founded the legendary Jazz Live Trio with Peter Frei and Peter Schmidlin. In this formation, he accompanied soloists such as Johnny Griffin, Dexter Gordon, Clark Terry, Slide Hampton and many more in over 100 live broadcasts.
After a 15-year break due to illness and cautious beginnings to revive his legendary Jazz Live Trio with young musicians, Klaus Koenig decided to bring in two wind players. This is how the quintet Seven Things was formed in 2013.
Their first album Piazza Rotonda received the highest number of five stars in Jazz'N'More. This was followed by the recordings Seven Things We Always Wanted to Know and Kings And Illusion, which was awarded all five stars in the NZZ am Sonntag, as was its successor Dark With Excessive Bright.
On October 13, 2024, Klaus Koenig will not only celebrate his 88th birthday at Moods, but also launch his fifth album From Major to Minor. The ideal opportunity to toast this impressive career.
