Jürgen Friedrich Monosuite

Monosuite—that’s what this fascinating work with its sparkling, shimmering sounds is called—music that bursts out in a powerful, clear tonal stream. The listener is immediately pulled into a maelstrom of undiscovered beauty. This is music for a 22 piece string orchestra and four masterful soloists from the contemporary world of jazz. These great musicians interact with the Sequenza String Orchestra in lively, elastic, and amazingly organic piece of jazz artistry—inspired music played with creative discipline.
