Tobias Weindorf - Parable (2021)

Tobias Weindorf's second album for JazzSick Records, which mainly contains pieces by the pianist. He is joined by long-time partners Kristina Brodersen (sax.), Christian Ramond (bass) and Peter Weiss (drums). As a bonus, there are also three vocal tracks by punk rock legend Joey Cape (Lagwagon, Bad Astronaut).

Tobias Weindorf, who this time contributed more pieces of his own compared to the previous albums, wants to cover as many aspects of contemporary jazz as possible. It starts with the line-up, which ranges from solo piano to quintet with vocals.

One encounters monk and modern straight-ahead jazz as well as punk songs that Weindorf carefully translates into the language of jazz.
