Description
'Wailing Wind's Story' is the debut album from the Simon Below Quartet and is the 73th edition of the Jazz thing Next Generation series.
The proximity to the water has always played an elementary role for the students at the Cologne University of Music (HfMT). Below has studied there with Professor Hendrik Soll and Hubert Nut. The themes of both the ocean and the wind have had a profound effect on Below as exemplified in the eight songs on the album.
Pianist Simon below has won the first prize in the "Jugend Jazzt NRW" three times. In 2017, he also won the "Steinway Förderpreis NRW" (Steinway Sponsorship of North-Rhine Westphalia) and the "Werner Richard-Carl Dörken-Stipendium" (Scholarship) together with his quartet from the HfMT with band members Fabian Dudek (alto and soprano saxophone), Yannik Tiemann (bass) and Jan Philipp (drums).
