An Exhausting Broztmann and Bennink

Read "An Exhausting Broztmann and Bennink" reviewed by Erik R. Quick


Peter Brötzmann and Han Bennink An Die Musik Baltimore, MD October 7, 2006 Few, if any, would claim that Peter Brötzmann is a tune meister. He has been referred to by some as a “sonic terrorist", while others describe his performances as “aural punishment". One story, perhaps fictional but ...

Peter Brotzmann Group: Alarm

Read "Alarm" reviewed by Nic Jones


Any Brötzmann group utilising material based upon the graphic instructions for a reaction to a nuclear emergency is never going to lack visceral intensity, and this music proves that with megawatts to spare. If the Brötzmann octet that put together the epochal Machine Gun (FMP, 1968) might be said to have been playing in response to ...

Peter Br: FMP 130

Read "FMP 130" reviewed by Kurt Gottschalk


22 years hence, these European masters have pretty well cemented themselves in their own corners of the free improv universe: the fury, sometimes restrained, of Peter Brötzmann; the madness of Han Bennink; and the elegant wandering of Fred van Hove. But when they got together in Bremen on February 25, 1973, it was with a sense ...

Peter Br: Signs

Read "Signs" reviewed by John Kelman


Woodwind multi-instrumentalist Peter Brötzmann has never been one to shy away from extremes in a career that has spanned nearly forty years and nearly a hundred albums.

Peter Br: Still Quite Popular After All Those Years

Read "Still Quite Popular After All Those Years" reviewed by Alexander Vogel


It has been 24 years since these two musicians have engaged in a duo, or any other musical collaboration. The musical association of German multi-woodwind stalwart Peter Brötzmann with ever-eccentric Dutch drummer Han Bennink can be dated back to 1968, perhaps earlier. Together with Brötzman's octet, they would release one of the most overwhelming albums in ...
