Wolfgang Lackerschmid - Lake Geneva (2018)

This album is unique musical document from the summer of 1995. With Wolfgang Lackerschmid, Chuck Loeb, John Lee and Marilyn Mazur four style-forming jazz characters met, who created for this irretrievable moment a music full of melodic expressiveness, pulsating lightness and tonal transparency. Unfortunately, despite the harmonious cooperation, there was no further encounter in this formation and there will be no more after Chuck Loeb's death last year.

"We were in an amazing mood while recording this album, spending an extraordinary summer week at lake Geneva in 1995. Invited by Lady Hamilton we were setting up our instruments and studio equipment in her living room, where we recorded whenever we felt like playing, between great meals and boat rides. Her brother Fritz-Georg Walther created his dreamband by bringing this formation together for this one and only time. Right from the first take on we knew that it will be a terrific album. Because the record company of the original release went out of business, this production was not available for about 20 years. Now I’m thrilled to be able to share this music with you!“ (Wolfgang Lackerschmid, March 2018)
