About
In seven fragments drawn from creation myths, Hansjörg Fink and Elmar Lehnen musically explore the questions of the origin of life. In the process they merge jazz elements with traditional stylistic features, improvisation with composed music, and sound out the limits of what is instrumentally possible. We thus discover a unique sound world in this collaboration between solo trombone and the world’s largest German Romantic organ.

Essentially a concept album, Seven is two musicians’ exploration of creation myths through seven musical fragments. All somewhat abstract, perhaps, but there are some interesting stylistic effects along the way, underpinned by a strong jazz influence. The organ is the world’s largest German romantic instrument, which is used to great effect.
