Musician

Johannes Wallmann

Born:

Johannes Wallmann’s fourth album as a leader features his NYC-based Brasstet, an innovative ensemble comprised of three brass (Ralph Alessi, trumpet; Josh Roseman, trombone; and Marcus Rojas, tuba) together with a rhythm section of bassist Sean Conly, drummer Fred Kennedy, and Wallmann on piano (Wallmann’s working piano trio for much of the past decade). The group’s instrumentation is nimble enough to allow for highly interactive ensemble play (such as the New Orleans-inspired collective improvisation of “The Sweet Minute”), yet rich enough in timbre to suggest a much larger brass choir (“Looms in the Mist”).
