About Taranczewski:
After more than 15 years without a touring band, award-winning film composer and pianist Olaf Taranczewski returns to the live stage with his longtime friends and musical partners Jean-Philippe Wadle and Benedikt Stehle.
Already after the first notes, which were played in November 2020 in the studio in Berlin-Kreuzberg, the group sensed that they had found their own sound: Intimate and wide. Gentle and powerful. Calm and rich in textures and with a narrative, painterly approach to each composition and arrangement.
The three musicians describe their music as Cinematic Jazz - creating moods, emotions and acoustic landscapes, giving each note room to breathe and searching for a deeper meaning in each melody, in each harmony.
Olaf Taranczewski has known bassist Jean-Philippe Wadle and drummer Benedikt Stehle for decades, but they never played together in this constellation before the band's formation in 2020. The three musicians are not only united by making music together in different projects, but also by listening to music together.
"The pieces themselves are also up to 15 years old," adds Olaf Taranczewski. "As far as the songs are concerned, it is in a way a 'best of' my compositions from the last decade and a half. However, they always felt unfinished. With Benedikt and Jean-Philippe, they have been completely recreated."
