When youthful brilliance and legendary experience meet, music is created that knows no boundaries. The Simon Oslender Trio, one of the most exciting young ensembles on the European jazz scene, will meet the multi-Grammy award-winning trumpet virtuoso Randy Brecker. A transatlantic summit in a class of its own. The German pianist, organist and composer Simon Oslender has already earned a firm place in the jazz world with his rousing mixture of groove, virtuosity and emotional depth. Together with his top-class trio partners Claus Fischer on bass and Jérôme Cardynaals on drums, he creates a modern, energetic sound that is at the same time deeply rooted in tradition. With Randy Brecker as a guest, the trio gets a special impulse: The American jazz icon decisively shaped the fusion sound of the 70s and 80s with his unmistakable style and played with greats such as Horace Silver, Art Blakey, Jaco Pastorius and many more. As "The Brecker Brothers", he and his brother, saxophone legend Michael Brecker, conquered the hearts of millions of music fans worldwide for decades. Randy Brecker's musical openness and emotional way of playing make him the ideal partner for this unique, cross-generational project. Together they celebrate the power of live jazz - spontaneously, virtuosically and full of soul.
