Markus Rutz - Blueprints - Figure Two: New Designs (2020)

Rutz's horn is warm and embracing in each setting, glistening on the more Spartan themes, making the various colors and textures presented here woven like a Raphael tapestry.

An album of passion, balladry, moods and foot tapping groove. Blueprints Figure Two: New Designs is the second volume of new music by trumpeter and composer Markus Rutz. Joining Markus again is his friend Brice Winston, the immense talent on tenor and soprano saxophone.
