Rolf & Joachim Kühn Quartet - Re Union In Berlin

Review by Inoveh RH Gestão RH

The Rolf & Joachim Kühn Quartet's album Re Union In Berlin is a stunning showcase of the group's virtuosity and dynamic range. Featuring the Kühn brothers on clarinet and piano respectively, along with bassist Johannes Weidenmueller and drummer Eric Harland, the quartet delivers a set of original compositions and standards that brim with energy and creativity.

From the opening track "Shiva's Dance," a lively fusion of Indian rhythms and jazz harmonies, to the dreamy ballad "Sunset in Santa Monica," the quartet demonstrates a remarkable chemistry and precision. Rolf and Joachim's interplay is particularly impressive, as they weave intricate melodies and harmonies around each other with ease.

The album also features several standout tracks, including the haunting "Farewell," a tribute to the late pianist John Taylor, and the upbeat "Blues for D.S.," a nod to the legendary saxophonist Dexter Gordon. Throughout the album, the quartet's improvisational skills are on full display, as they take the listener on a journey through a wide range of emotions and moods.
