Kika Sprangers, Martin Fondse, Jörg Brinkmann | Albumrelease Lumen | Lumière Jazz Nights
This remarkable combination of three composers and performers – with roots in European jazz and chambre music - travels many musical roads. The result is a colorful collaboration with lyrical and melancholic melodies with a minimal and cinematic vibe.
January 2020 Dutch trio Kika Sprangers (saxophone), Martin Fondse (piano & keyboards vibrandoneon) and Jörg Brinkmann (cello, electronics) finished recording fourteen instrumental pieces at Splendor Amsterdam, with producer/engineer Chris Weeda (most known for his work with Toots Thielemans). “Lumen” is their blueprint for searching new paths in modern music, an album rich of themes.
