„The Vienna Chamber Diaries“ is the realisation of a long dreamt idea. A compositional adventure in which I fused chamber music with jazz soloists.

An ensemble of 9 outstanding musicians from both the classical and the jazz side of the coin recorded a set of brand new compositions. We had a vibrant and inspiring session from 17. - 20. December.

The album will be released next fall on Wolfgang Muthspiel´s Label "Material Records".

Musicians

Wolfgang Muthspiel – electric, accoustic & baritone guitar
Klaus Gesing – soprano saxophone, bass clarinet
Gwilym Simcock – piano 

Johannes Dickbauer – violin

Florian Eggner – cello

Thomas Frey – flute, piccolo flute, alto flute
Paul Kaiser – oboe
Christian Bakanic – accordion

In a campaign through the Crowdfunding platform STARTNEXT around 40 interested, believing, supportive, art-loving people gave a little contribution (smaller or larger).

It added up to a sum of 2500€ for the recording projects budget !!!

Thank you all so much. I hope the music will give you a lot of joy!
