Recensie
The second album by jazzpianist Wolfgang Maiwald, entitled ‘The Silent Ones’ will be
released this September. The official album release concert will take place September 21st at
the North Sea Jazz Club in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The concert is part of an album
release tour through Dutch jazz clubs and venues.
With his new CD “The Silent Ones” Wolfgang Maiwald appears to have found this own
direction. He proves to be a skillful, lyrical, melody-loving pianist who has captured his
place in Europe’s first division of Jazz-pianists.
Klaas Koopman, Jazz journalist, The Netherlands
As a Jazz pianist and composer myself, I am adding Wolfgang to my list of favorite
players like Fred Hersch, Herbie Hancock and Keith Jarrett. I’m greatly impressed by
the developments in his melodic, harmonic and rhythmical approach. This CD reveals a
pianoplayer who has found his own, original way of writing and playing Jazz. Enjoy!”
Jazz pianist and former Director of Jazz Studies of the Hilversum Conservatory of Music (now merged
with the Amsterdam Conservatory), The Netherlands
Wolfgang Maiwald is a contemporary jazz pianist with an original sound. His compositions distinguish themselves by catchy, nar rat ivemelodies, compelling grooves and l y r i c a l improvisations.
Together with Guus Bakker on upright bass and Pim Dros on drums, Maiwald manages to create a trio that is familiar with the jazz tradition and simultaneously has the nerve to depart from it, dressing it up in a new and personal way.
Atmospher ical , or iginal songs ar e accompanied with a fine selction of lovely interpretations of existing standards. Sophisticated, song-based jazz that offers abundant space for interaction, adventure and tranquility. In short, music that appeals to the imagination of a wide audience.
Maiwald graduated Cum Laude at the Hilversum Conservatory, The Netherlands, and developed into an exceptionally sophisticated and subtle musician.
