Harmonik in der Jazzimprovisation (Harmony in Jazz Improvisation)
This comprehensive account of jazz harmony was published in 2023 by AMA-Verlag and is now recommended reading in the jazz department of the Hochschule für Musik in Hamburg.
“This is not only a very well-structured textbook that makes understanding enormously easier, but also a successful survey of everything that has shaped – or still shapes – jazz harmony, past and present.” (Jazzpodium)
New band project: Slow Migration
“Slow Migration” is the name of the new band project by saxophonist and composer Matthias Petzold. Petzold’s compositions are groove-oriented and a little more playful than usual. They conjure up images of storks, tortoises, wandering kings, intergalactic journeys, leaps into other planes of time and much more.
The band’s front line of trumpet, saxophone/clarinet and cello sounds unusual and many-layered. The band brings together musicians from different generations, who merge into a dynamic and stylistically diverse unit. Each member of the band brings their own individual sound and style of improvisation to the compositions.
