Notes and Editorial Reviews
Theo Jörgensmann and Albrecht Maurer personify respectively wind and string instruments. In their new album, Melencolia, their performance reminds us simultaneously of the clarity and joy of being, of Eric Satie, and the vigour of a musical combat in an Irish pub in the early hours of the morning. This joyous, virtuoso pair produces a touching love play between spirit and matter. The musical foundation of melancholy chosen by these two provides an ideal base, since melancholy as an expression of longing for illusive love, provides the motivation for creative imagination. In other words melancholy as the core of the freedom to creative improvisation also supports unprejudiced and liberal adoption.
