Henning Sieverts Symmethree

With his new CD Symmethree, Henning Sieverts shows how full-bodied this heady music can be—the sparkling, spirited play from the bassist-cellist-composer is combined with an unusual sense of humor, a special feeling for beauty and trickily structured pieces that nevertheless sound completely natural. With these three musicians, it all sounds incredibly easy—the themes and motifs bubble out like water from a wellspring. The listener never senses the kind of effort that can go into playing pieces of this sort of difficulty, simply because these three musicians’ music has a lot of spirit and soul. This music is fun and sensuous!
