Description
The "Color Studies" reveal themselves to be a collection of sketches and pictures, fragments and small strokes of genius which German saxophonist Birgitta Flick has combined into a whole picture with her magnificent quartet on this her third album.
Before Birgitta Flick was pigeonholed as a Nordic sound artist due to the explicitly Swedish, peaceful, expansive ambiance of her previous albums "Yingying" (DMCHR 71121) and "Dalarna" (DMCHR 71170), she wanted to very consciously head in a different direction, introduce new colours, get to the bottom of them and play with them.
"After 'Dalarna', which originated from an order for a composition with a clear contextual background, we simply wanted to move in free space, wanted to improvise and combine the sum total of our inspirations," Birgitta Flick explained the motif of her collective studies. "The idea with colours originated rather by chance, because I had the piece 'Color Studies'. However, we soon realized that it expresses what we are doing very well." The reason is that Flick, Andrzejewski, Schmidt and Banner experiment with the respective compositions as well as their melodic and rhythmic structures to create music from and for the moment.
