Our Take

Horst Hansen Trio's latest offering, "Live In Japan," is a wild ride from start to finish. The German jazz outfit brings their A-game in this electrifying performance captured live in the Land of the Rising Sun.

From the moment Hansen's fingers hit the keys, you know you're in for a treat. The trio's chemistry is undeniable as they effortlessly glide through intricate melodies and heart-pounding rhythms. It's like watching a well-oiled machine in action, each member playing off the others with precision and passion.

The standout track has to be "Tokyo Nights," a funky number that transports you to the bustling streets of Japan's capital city. Hansen's piano solos are like a breath of fresh air, floating effortlessly over the driving bass and drums. It's impossible not to tap your foot along to this infectious groove.

But it's not all high energy jams – the trio also knows how to slow it down and tug at your heartstrings. Tracks like "Sakura Serenade" showcase Hansen's sensitive touch and emotional depth, painting a picture of cherry blossoms swaying in the wind.

Overall, "Live In Japan" is a triumph for Horst Hansen Trio. They've managed to capture lightning in a bottle with this live recording, proving once and for all that jazz is alive and well in the Land of the Rising Sun. So sit back, relax, and let yourself be swept away by Hansen and his band's musical magic.

About the artist

Horst Hansen Trio

Horst Hansen Trio is the kind of band that makes you wonder why you haven't heard of them sooner. Comprised of Horst Hansen on guitar, Ingrid Schneider on bass, and Klaus Müller on drums, this German jazz trio has been making waves in the music scene with their unique blend of traditional jazz, contemporary influences, and a healthy dose of cheeky humour. With Hansen's intricate guitar work, Schneider's solid and groovy basslines, and Müller's impeccable sense of rhythm, the trio is a force to be reckoned with on stage. Their live performances are a sight to behold, with Hansen's playful banter with the audience and Müller's infectious energy keeping everyone on their toes. But don't let their light-hearted approach fool you - these three musicians are serious about their craft. With years of experience under their belts, they have honed their individual skills to create a tight-knit and cohesive sound that is truly their own. Their latest album, "Schnitzel Jazz", is a perfect representation of their musical style. With tracks like "Bratwurst Blues" and "Beer Garden Ballad", the trio takes the listener on a journey through the streets of Berlin, with each note painting a vivid picture of the city's vibrant jazz scene. Horst Hansen Trio is not just another jazz band - they are a musical experience. So grab a pint of lager, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to be swept away by the infectious rhythms of this German sensation. Prost!
