Friedrich Gulda/Herbert Berger/Sabina Hank: Jazz Violin Concertos

"The complete violinist" Benjamin Schmid inspires both audiences and international critics in the field of jazz and improvisation. For his latest album "Jazz Violin Concertos" with the Swedish chamber orchestra Musica Vitae, Schmid presents jazz violin concertos written by Austrian composers. Friedrich Gulda's Violin Concerto entitled "Wings" is conceived as a single large violin cadenza with orchestra, which lacks not only virtuoso but also groovy parts. Herbert Berger's "Metropoles Suite" was adapted for violin by the composer for Benjamin Schmid; each of the movements "Insomnia", "El largo adios", "A la minute" and "Avenida" can be assigned to a metropolis. "Three Songs for an Abandonend Angel" by the Austrian jazz pianist and composer Sabina Hank was also written for Schmid.
