Tobias Meinhart - Sonic River (2025) [Hi-Res]

Described by JazzThing as 'Germany’s biggest saxophone talent,' award-winning saxophonist Tobias Meinhart has built an international career blending New York’s depth with European lyricism. Based in Brooklyn, he has performed at the Blue Note, Smalls, and Jazz at Lincoln Center, as well as Winter Jazz Fest and Jarasum Festival.

With his new project SONIC RIVER, Meinhart brings poetry into focus. The program takes us on a journey that includes a musical setting of the famous poem "The Panther" by Rainer Maria Rilke. Top-class musicians complete SONIC RIVER: among them pianist Eden Ladin, bassist Matt Penman, and drummer JK Kim. For the concert in Regensburg, the exceptional Argentine guitarist Ramiro Olaciregui will also be part of the lineup.
