Quintet West

Once again, the five musicians, who are not only connected by their profession, prove their qualities in playing together: When saxophone and trumpet merge in unison to create a perfect sound, when the bass intro opens up an arc of tension that becomes richer and more energetic with each instrument that joins in, this is when Quintet West has captivated its listeners. Creative statements in monologue, dialog or collective, sensitive, powerful and onomatopoeic solos that enrich the strong melody lines. They tell of traveling, of waiting, of unknown places and events.
