Florian Stoffner - guitar Paul Lovens - drumset Rudi Mahall - bass clarinet. Kaum noch hat ein lebend Ohr vernommen solchen Klang, dem zu widerstehen kein von einem Weib geborenes Wesen je vermag. Ungeachtet der Regeln jeglichen Stils genügt dem Tapferen einzig das Gesetz der Musik, dem als Ziel allein er sich verpflichtet: Bande zu knüpfen um Knoten zu lösen.

Kaum noch hat ein lebend Ohr vernommen solchen Klang, dem zu widerstehen kein von einem Weib geborenes Wesen je vermag.

Svizzero, classe 1975, Florian Stoffner è il primo firmatario del disco di cui ci occupiamo, che lo vede interagire col cinquantunenne clarinettista tedesco Rudi Mahall e con un'autentica icona della free improvisation europea, Paul Lovens, in un lavoro che appunto l'aleatorietà più esplicita ed eloquente pratica senza mezzi termini. Con tutto il corollario di rito (perché in realtà, ormai da tempo, l'improvvisazione senza rete interessa anche musicisti lessicalmente più prudenti): note false, intemperanze, grugniti e ruvidità varie, secondo un copione ampiamente noto.

Stoffner is a promising musician indeed. He says that he’s influenced by guitarists like Jimi Hendrix, Bill Frisell and John Scofield, but his style rather reminds me of Derek Bailey or Olaf Rupp. In this trio he foils Rudi Mahall’s swinging approach with very clear reductionism. Mein Freund Der Baum (My Friend the Tree) is reminiscent of a collage - sound snippets are taken out of contexts, they’re rearranged, just to be rejected, changed, and rearranged again. The music constantly shifts and fractures. The result is a fragmented, diverging, only seeming chaos on the one hand, but it’s actually a perfect piece of work on the other

Stoffner is a promising musician indeed. It’s full of excellent musicianship and unexpected twists and turns.
