Gregor Schor- Bigband: Das größte gemeinsame Vielfache

With *Am Grund*, saxophonist and composer Gregor Schor presents a work that takes jazz seriously both in its freedom and in its formal rigor. Gregor Schor composes with the openness of a sketch artist. The pencil replaces the conductor’s baton: the lines are clearly drawn, yet they allow for correction, expansion, and spontaneity. The result is pieces that are precisely constructed on the one hand, yet open to the individual style of each musician on the other.

This band is not an orchestra that simply goes through the motions. It is a toolbox containing everything from surgical precision to a sledgehammer. At its core is a jazz album that delves deep—not into darkness, but into the space where composition and improvisation, the individual and the ensemble, freedom and form converge.
