Album: Intertwined Trees

A festival appearance in Perth (WA), Australia brought saxophonist and flautist Heinrich von Kalnein and the Korean pianist and composer Sophie Min together for the first time. 24 hours later, the two went into the studio to record music that oscillates virtuosically and playfully between classical and jazz. The Swiss Culture Tip noted: “The breathtakingly organic interaction allows only one conclusion: two absolute professionals were at work here, but they also knew how to sense and implement the magic of the moment. ... A musical gem.” With stupendous instrumental technique and a sure instinct for the musical moment, Sophie Min creates sound spaces that give space and time to Kalnein's exclusively flautistic excursions.
