A homage to the
legendary „Four Brothers“ (Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Herbie
Stewart and Serge Chaloff) of the 2nd Herd Woody Herman
Band and comparably to the Eddie „Lockjaw“
Davis Very Saxy four tenor band featuring Coleman
Hawkins, Arnett Cobb and Buddy Tate.
We started this project for the first time in
Bingen/Rhein (GER) for the Jazzfestival „Bingen Swingt“
in June 2010. Heinz v. Hermann together with Wilson
„Yiye“ de Oliveira, Jürgen Seefelder and Peter Weniger.
In Berlin at the Bad'schen Hof we repeated this project
in Oktober of 2014 with Wilson „Yiye" de Oliviera,
Walter Gauchet and Peter Weniger and because of the
overwhelming feedback, it was a no-brainer to bring this
project to Vienna. The rhythm section consisted of
Wolfgang Köhler p, Lars Ghlke bass and Felix Astor
drums.
The Vienniese colleagues were immediately enthused and
we proudly presented at Zwe's in Vienna the „4 very saxy
brothers“ with Herwig Gradischnig, Martin Fuss and
Bernhard Wiesinger. The rhythm section features Markus
Gaudriot on Piano, Alexander Lackner on Bass and Tom
Henkes on Drums.
The name of the band is a little bit misleading,
it should rathe be „4 generations of tenor-saxophone“!
The program contains the pieces out of the repertoire of
above mentioned bands (of course) plus a few extra
written compositions and arrangements for this lineup.
