Tobias Meinhart: Sonic River

Read "Sonic River" reviewed by Vic Albani


Bavarese trapiantato a Brooklyn da quasi un ventennio, Tobias Meinhart è un altro dei tanti nomi pressoché sconosciuti alle nostre latitudini. Mescolando il groove jazz con la narrazione poetica il sassofonista e flautista è da anni una presenza costante della scena newyorkese new mainstream. Come insegnano le note relative a questo suo nuovo lavoro inciso per la propria etichetta, i fiumi hanno sempre avuto un ruolo importante nella sua vita: se ai tempi della scuola il sassofonista, ...

Tobias Meinhart: The Painter

Read "The Painter" reviewed by Friedrich Kunzmann


During the past decade of working the jazz clubs of New York, German tenor saxophonist Tobias Meinhart has soaked up every inch of the musical tradition he started pursuing as a drummer in Bavaria in his early teens. A keen ear for melodic development, a gift for harmonic oversight and the whims for rhythmic intricacy already graced the saxophonist's last outing, Berlin People (Sunnyside, 2018), featuring the distinctive playing of Kurt Rosenwinkel. On The Painter, however, Meinhart has now also ...

Tobias Meinhart: Berlin People

Read "Berlin People" reviewed by Friedrich Kunzmann


For this outing as a leader, New York-based saxophonist Tobias Meinhart has assembled a team of musicians who are all based in Berlin and have studied under Kurt Rosenwinkel. The guitarist, another Berliner, is featured on just over half of the nine, highly melodic and mostly original compositions. Within that tuneful paradigm, the material is varied, as just four examples will attest. “Mount Meru" establishes the groundwork for a rhythmically dichotomous exercise that gives Meinhart and Rosenwinkel plenty ...

Tobias Meinhart: Natural Perception

Read "Natural Perception" reviewed by Edward Blanco


Presenting his debut recording on the Munich-based ENJA Records, Natural Perception is Bavarian-born and Brooklyn, New York-based saxophonist Tobias Meinhart's fourth album as leader delivering a rich palette of swinging modern jazz deserving serious attention. On tap are six Meinhart originals as well as fresh new arrangements of Harry Warren's classic “You're My Everything," and Bill Frisell's “Throughout." Though a veteran of the European jazz environment, since moving to the Big Apple, the saxophonist has become a much in-demand player ...

Tobias Meinhart Quartet: Pursuit of Happiness

Read "Pursuit of Happiness" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Il giovane sassofonista bavarese, alla guida di un quartetto in attività dal 2008 e composto di altrettanto giovani musicisti, presenta un lavoro di jazz allo stesso tempo moderno, classico e rilassatamente swingante. Meinhart - studi a Basilea e Berna prima di volare a New York - sceglie un repertorio originale (tre i brani a sua firma, due del pianista, uno a testa per il contrabbassista e il batterista) con un omaggio a Joe Henderson (al quale con il tenore il ...
