Michael Wollny owns every grand piano he sits down at. There's no doubt about it. Here comes German jazz's undisputed leading young pianist with a rock-solid trio, one of the stars of the German ACT record label. Be prepared, because it's going to be a blast from start to finish. Wollny and the grand piano are on the same side... The result is breathtaking. And although some notes will certainly be knocked down along the way, the process gives the impression that the two really love playing with each other.
At the same time it's challenging and very satisfying, because Michael Wollny knows what he's doing and where he wants to go; he'll challenge his listeners one moment and pamper them the next. Because there's also room for pampering. A true innovator of German jazz.
