Cast Off - Leinen Los

FABIAN SCHOENE QUARTET SCHLOSSER

Four young musicians full of euphoria raring to go are in the starting gates, eager to be finally able to show what they can do. In this respect, the title “Cast off- Leinen los” for the debut album of the quartet of the alto and soprano saxophonist living in Mannheim Fabian Schone fits just as well as the mouthpieces on his golden horns. Cast off and go out into the rough sea of a professional musician’s life! The overall picture of this album is especially characterized by the always noticeable authenticity, with which all participants get to work. No one has to compromise; all play exactly what they love and also like to hear: fresh, pleasant non-nostalgic post-bop full of swinging and rocking grooves, solo gems, picturesque, hymn-like melodies and sophisticated sets, held together by an organic group sound, for which the Hungarian pianist Laszlo Szitko, the Franconian bassist Friedrich Betz and Ludwigshafen drummer Tobias Frohnhofer stand. The nine pieces recorded on May 9 and 10 2017, all composed by Fabian Schone, were created over a period of time and have a common theme. “Because I am originally from Flensburg, in other words grew up at the coast, and am also passionate about water sports, the titles always deal with the wet element or have a Nordic touch for me.”
