Andy Lumpp · Adelhard Roidinger - Parusia II (February 8, 2022 Nabel Records)

For many years, Adelhard Roidinger has been involved in developing new sounds based on micro-tonality. With his 7-string tenor bass and state-of-the-art electronics, he has created an exciting and wide-ranging musical dialogue in partnership with pianist Andy Lumpp, who, with his classic touch and extended harmonies, turns in a performance truely typical of his work.

The five spontaneously composed pieces included on this album showcase a new kind of audio experience, neither free jazz nor within the mainstream tradition.

This CD presents the second part of the May 2019 recording session. Jazz music with unmistakably European roots!
