Franz von Chossy is a German-born pianist and composer who has made a name for himself across Europe and beyond, winning first prize at the Dutch Jazz Competition and 2nd prize at the Montreux Solo Piano Competition. His album, Mirror 9 (ZenneZ Records, 2025), takes the listener on a thrilling journey through modern jazz and classical music that’s well worth experiencing from start to finish. The cohering theme is the enneagram, a classification system that organizes human personality traits according to ways of seeing, feeling and being in the world. Orchestrated for sax, violin/guitar, piano, cello, bass and drums, each song on Mirror 9 represents a type of person in the enneagram, such as "the Individualist." Musically speaking, the overall work is riveting, delicately shifting timbre and energy from song-to-song and passage-to-passage. Here we have "Epilogue (Outtake)," suggesting the beauty and mysteries of being alive.
