About the Album

The title track from Tobias Hoffmann’s latest release “Innuendo” and pays tribute to Hoffmann’s lifelong admiration for the legendary rock band Queen. Hoffmann’s composition captures that dynamic, multifaceted spirit by combining contrasting elements into one powerful work for Big Band. Featuring a gripping alto saxophone solo by Florian Trübsbach, “Innuendo” earned the prestigious “Best Composition” honor in the large ensemble category at the 47th Downbeat Student Music Awards.
