This band led by German saxophonist Johannes Enders is inspired by Pharoah Sanders’ emotional intensity and never derivative. In nine original compositions the musicians build a bridge back to Sanders, formulating their very own interpretation, expanding on it, and making it swing. Johannes Enders has found an ideal trio for this. Billy Hart was on drums when Pharoah Sanders recorded his album “Karma” with the legendary “The Creator Has a Master Plan” in New York in 1969, he puts his stamp of authenticity on a music full of bursting swing and groove. The dexterous and supple bass of Joris Teepe, who in Rashied Ali’s band gained first-hand experience with one of the protagonists of the New York’s own October revolution in Jazz, intertwines with Hart to form a solid yet flexible base over which Johannes Enders can develop his distinctively imaginative playing, wonderfully fluid yet with many points of controlled friction.
