Florian Poser - Plays His Favourite Standards (2011)

Florian Poser: vibraphone Roberto DiGioiga: piano Thomas Stabernow: bass Wolfgang Haffner: drums.

The vibraphonist Florian Poser is considered one of the most interesting representatives of his profession in Germany. Although he was more likely to be experienced in the style of jazz-rock with his group Lifeline during the early Eighties, he made a name for himself at the beginning of the Nineties in the area of swinging mainstream jazz and Latin jazz music with the Florian Poser Group. On the CD "Florian Poser Plays His Favourite Standards," only songs of the so-called standard jazz repertoire are to be heard, as the title already implies. Florian Poser has long had the wish of recording a standard CD with classic quartet instrumentation. In summer of 1994, the opportunity arose for this project together with Robert DiGioia,Thomas Stabenow and Wolfgang Haffner. All three musicians in the accompanying ensemble are leading representatives of their instruments in Europe and internationally renowned and esteemed through their work with innumerable prominent jazz musicians.
