Genre
Jazz
Bass, drums and three wind instruments – Patrick Sommer's Quintet seeks momentum, a shared flow that allows the music to flourish and transcend compositional ideas.
Patrick Sommer has assembled a group of strong personalities for his quintet. Together with drummer Pius Baschnagel, bassist Sommer forms a rhythm section that trusts each other blindly and has been shaping a wide variety of musical contexts for many years. Baritone saxophonist Charlotte Lang and trumpeter Bastien Rieser are two confident voices of the younger generation. Christoph Grab has been an influential tenor saxophonist on the Swiss jazz scene for three decades.
Patrick Sommer's compositions arise from his engagement with his various low-pitched instruments – double bass, bass guitar and the Moroccan guembri. In his bass universe, he creates moods, and explores his musical possibilities and experiences. The resulting pieces are relaxed and clear. The band deliberately avoids the constraints of rigid arrangements, allowing itself to unfold freely and independently – fresh, adventurous and intense.
