CELEBRATION

Happy Release Day Markus Stockhausen Group! Today the group around Markus Stockhausen releases the album “CELEBRATION”.

“Life-affirming fusion music is the declared concept of this double album […] The musical-geographical diversity of origin of the contributors […] decisively characterizes the transcultural, predominantly heated sound.” Jazzpodium

As a trumpet soloist, improviser and composer at home in jazz as well as in contemporary and classical music, Markus Stockhausen is one of the most versatile musicians of our time internationally and is known as a musical border crosser – always in search of new forms of expression.

After “Wild Life” and “Tales”, “Celebration” is now being released. On their third album, the Markus Stockhausen Group celebrates the life, music and friendship of their quartet with six wonderful guest musicians from many different countries. As the previous album “Tales” (o-tone music) already featured many facets of the group, this time they really want to “celebrate” and enrich their music with the extraordinary musicality of those guest soloists.

The album will be presented in the NDR magazine “Play Jazz” on April 15 as NDR Album of the Week.

The album is now available on JPC.
