More Info:
Joachim Kühn, one of the world's best-known musical personalities from Germany, presents his debut on Intakt Records with the double album Échappée and delivers us a stellar moment in the art of solo piano. Kühn has been one of the most outstanding musicians from contemporary jazz since the mid-1960s and has been captivating listeners for decades with his soulful piano sound and a ravenous drive for freedom. Échappée bears impressive witness to this relentlessness. "This is a summation under the banner of the provisional; these melodies condensed into moments reflect the experiences of a rich life. With this recording, made shortly before his eightieth birthday, the pianist set out to offer the best he was capable of: Joachim Kühn, that exceptional talent, setting his bar higher than ever" writes Bert Noglik in the liner notes and adds: "With Échappée he has created an 'essential album', and he has bared all: his craft, his love and his passion." A masterwork.
