This is the first album of the swiss german collective trombone quartet. By using all kind of sounds, structures, grooves and styles the band escapes from the angerous ground of the traditional and choir like trombone ensemble sound. A must for all trombone fans but also for those who are curious how trombone music should sound today. We are here to raise the reputation of this underrated instrument. Recorded live to two track analog tape at the legendary SRF Studio1. No other musical instrument exhibits such a strong similarity to the human voice as the trombone. In jazz, the large horn seems, perhaps here and there, a bit less maneuverable than the trumpet or the saxophone. Only a trombone player completely conscious of the vocal magic of his instrument will be able to pry out the instrument"s magic. That Nils Wogram has a very intimate relationship to his blowpipe should have gotten around by now; it"s one that goes far beyond jazz-typical phrasing pedantry. In bands such as Root 70, Nostalgia and his septet, as well as in duos with Conrad Bauer, Simon Nabatov or Bojan Z., he has displayed very different ways to access the trombone.
