Philipp Maria Rosenberg - Rotwelsch: Schenk mir das Himmelsreich

In the organizer's words:

Rotwelsch? The name of the trio, consisting of Philipp Maria Rosenberg (piano), Florian Kolb (double bass) and Jordi Pallarés (drums), refers to the traditional crook language, which draws creatively and richly on the vocabularies of different languages and dialects; the same applies to their music, testimony to their own playful approach to jazz and improvisation. "He respected the audience and wanted to offer them good music that they could listen to and love, music that was not primitive but true." - This description, directed at the now largely forgotten operetta composer Joseph Beer, also applies to the core of Rotwelsch's music. The ensemble brings the "good" and "true" music of Beer and other operetta composers that it hears and loves into the present by making it the basis for its own work as a kind of "Great European Songbook". On the basis of this versatile historical material, new pieces are created in which the "true", immediate musical expression takes center stage. The wonderful melody lines, often of almost "heavenly" length and often with touching but never primitive pathos, are transferred by the trio to the instrumental - even the piano hammers begin to sing.
