Saxophonist Peter Ehwald, member of the thriving Berlin Jazz scene, meets up with New York based Bass player Matt Aronoff and Drummer Brian Adler. Together they will celebrate reunion in a Jazz music, which is energetic and humorous, soft and gloomy, free and melodic, a music that- no matter, where it is heading– seems to take always the right direction

Paul Medley/ Oxford Times January 2008
"[...] Ehwalds tenorplaying has the raw dissonant energy and wide-ranging
phrasing of Brecker moving towards Ayler [...]"
Olaf Weiden / Kölner Rundschau:
„ […] Most exciting soloist is Peter Ehwald with an amazing tone and a
broad stylistic variety […].“
Sebastian Scotney, LondonJazz, 31.01.09
Ehwald has a prodigious saxophone technique and a fine ear, particularly in
his frequent excursions into altissimo[...] his most natural voice seemed to
me to emerge in the more thoughtful and expressive moments.
Gabriel Alegria, Artistic Director of Jazz Peru International, Lima, June 2008
„Peter Ehwald is clearly a catalyst for this band, bringing together its
members around an athletic yet decidedly expressive sound. „Dunkel“ is
just one example of Ehwald s warmth as a composer and an
instrumentalist. His importance to this ensemble s surprising cohesion is
evident.“
