FreeTENORS takes you on a musical adventure with phenomenal musicians from three countries — Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia. Harry Sokal — the founder of the band — is one of Europe’s greatest saxophonists. With the idea of forming a band of three saxophones, Sokal began collaborating with Ondr(ej Štverác(ek and Bernhard Wiesinger, two young colleagues from the Czech and Austrian jazz scene.
This ensemble embodies musicians who are searching for a fresh, unconventional, unprecedented approach to the standard jazz form. After the opening of the Iron Curtain in 1989, Harry Sokal was one of the first in Austria to seek like-minded musicians in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. With Tomáš Baroš on double-bass and Marián Ševc(ík on drums, he found the best in their craft and musicianship. They create one of the most remarkable jazz rhythm sections, intensifying the freeTENORS’ colourful, thrilling sound and musical cohesiveness.
The virtuosity and musical skill of these world class musicians inspire their audience to reach greater heights of perceptive listening and to explore a deeper love of jazz.
