Jens Düppe Quartet
The sound is more interesting and colourful than ever!
Jens Düppe is back with original ideas and a new album, the fourth of his quartet. He conceives the compositions on the new album for ever-changing line-ups of his award-winning fellow musicians. The result is a captivating flow of ever new sounds and structures. Timeless music, says the press.
The band around the Cologne drummer and WDR Jazz Prize winner has now been in existence for ten years and has been convincing right from the start. Even their first album elicited reactions such as "A leading light for modern jazz" (Midwest record) or "best European jazz" (Jazzpodium). in 2018, Düppe was nominated for the ECHO Jazz award for "Best National Drummer". Together with his colleague Frederik Köster (trp), Lars Duppler (p) and Christian Ramond (b), the band performs so strongly as a whole that the live press cannot help but describe the concerts as "breathtaking sound adventures" (Holsteinischer Courier) or simply as "happenings" (Westfälische Nachrichten).
