MUSIC FROM THE SOUTH.
We, that's Christin and I, drove to Villach yesterday, in order to listen to Tonc Feinig on the Piano, Daniel Nösig - trumpet, Wolfgang Puschnik - Alto Sax, Michael Erian - Tenor Sax, Marius Vavti on the Slide Trombone, David Dolliner on bass and, last but not least, Klemens Markl on drums.
If you want to hear the best of the best on their respective instruments, this was the place to be.
What a Concert in the so-called "Kulturhofkeller. A real basement dive, suggesting what a Jazz-dive must have been like in the early days of Jazz.
The place was jammed to overflowing and, I guarantee you, there wasn't one of the crowd who was not swinging in their soul.
The lighting was dim, as befits such a place, very conducive to Music, but not to photography without a flash.
My camera goes up to 6400 ISO, and I hand-held at 50 shutter-speed.
The images below are the best I could do.
Well, why were you not there? You could have not only seen this band but, far more important, you could have heard one of the greatest Septets not only here in "the South of Carinthia", but anywhere.
Tonc` Feinig
One of the finest on the keyboards, anywhere !
Marius Vavti
You cannot get much smoother on the Slide.
In the background, David Dolliner on the Bass
Wolfgang Puschnik
On the Alto Sax.
In years from an earlier generation, but in Music: Very Much Today, if not Tomorrow.
Klemens Marktl
The MASTER OF PERCUSSION:
What can I tell you about
Daniel Nösig?
Silver notes tumble out of his horn, in an almost breath-taking cascade.
David Dolliner
A young man who turns the Rhythm instrument into the 6th presenter of Melody.
Now, aren't you sorry that you did not go to Villach, last night.
Just as well you didn't. You would not have gotten a seat.
