[improv Jazz]

Ewald Hügle [sax]

They connect with a drastic art collage-technique, abstract sound structures intentionally ironic melodic passages, a passionate style of weaving music full with charm elegance and humor.

Since three years the 4 musicians Urs Röllin, Ewald Hügle, Robert Morgentaler and Dieter Ulrich have devoloped their own playing concepts. All four have roots in both jazz and classical music. Various other influences on each player raise the exitement in their combined playing as well.
