ED KRÖGER QUINTETT

In the organizer's words:

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE JAZZ

ED KRÖGER QUINTET

In his long stage history, Ed Kröger has played with the "who's who" of European jazz. He was in Harald Eckstein's sextet and founded his own group with Sigi Busch and Heinrich Hock in 1967, which, with the addition of Joe Viera, toured Austria, Hungary and Luxembourg in 1968. Kröger worked with Marion Brown, Steve McCall, Gerd Dudek, Albert Mangelsdorff and others and performed in the free jazz groups of Fred Van Hove and Wolfgang Dauner at the Berlin Jazz Festival in 1968 and 1969. In 1973, Kröger switched to the piano, playing in his own trio, but also with Manfred Schoof, Wolfgang Engstfeld, Christof Lauer, Uli Beckerhoff and Wolfgang Lackerschmid. In 1984 he returned to the trombone and founded the group "Trombone Jazz" (with Detlev Beier and others).

The current Ed Kröger Quintet with Ignaz Dinné (tenor saxophone), Vincent Bourgeyx (piano), Max Leiß (double bass) and

Jan Leibnitz (drums) is one of the most exciting and virtuosic ensembles in the hard-bop tradition. With their compositions, Ed Kröger and Ignaz Dinné give the quintet's sound its own unmistakable color.
