Studnitzky - Egis (2010)

»EGIS« is Jazz – and a lot more. There is a unique sound, a special type of emotion as well as a certain minimalistic character that makes the listening experience more intimate at the heart of Sebastian Studnitzky‘s music – real up close. With fascinating detailed soundscapes and a message delivered
in a musical language entirely his own, Sebastian Studnitzky’s new album, »EGIS«, brings his mastery into focus. Overflowing with vitality and excitement, packed with energy, the album tells many different stories. Each song carefully treads the line between the magnificent emotionalism of the music and the intentional spontaneity of the recording. Listeners have the opportunity to experience not only the music itself but also the sound of the rooms in which it was played – one can even hear the instruments working.
