Coming soon in collaboration with SWR Radio and CPO Records. — Stay tuned!
In review:
“William Grant Still cultivated an eclectic musical style, combining elements from jazz and blues with European music - and his songs ("Rising Tide" or "Songs of Separation", after poets of the so-called "Harlem Renaissance") are among the highlights of the evening. This is thanks to the baritone Gabriel Rollinson and […] Hartmut Höll. The two performers lead through Still's sound worlds with incredible sensitivity; lyrical and sensual, also hard and dark - each text passage is placed in an attractive light by the piano.”
