Tobias Wember Subway Jazz Orchestra - State of Mind (2016) UNIT RECORDS



present



5-Part Suite for Jazz Orchester

In 2014, the suite state of mind for jazz orchester was created. It is, in its scope and versatility, the result of Tobias Wembers long-time experience in writing contemporary music. Wember’s compositions occur in special moments, through which this varied and comprehensive suite, based on everyday emotions and situations was shaped. Soft, melancholy sequences are replaced by pulsating, advancing music. Contemplative melodies encounter powerful, structured and richly coloured passages.

In 2015, Tobias Wember was awarded the WDR jazz prize for composition and produced the CD state of mind in the German Deutschlandfunk studios with the Subway Jazz Orchestra.
