Barbara Dennerlein's tour dates and reviews


Review of Barbara Dennerlein's new CD "Change Of Pace" in the June issue of the German magazine "Jazzthing".

In a not quite accurate translation:

"Barbara Dennerlein is a musical explorer. In June 2005 the organist chose the Philharmonic Orchestra of the State of Rhineland-Palatinate for a first-time meeting between jazz trio and classical orchestra. An exceptional project has been recorded at the Philharmonic Hall of Essen which is a open minded place for musical experiments. The author visited the fascinating concert and admits: also on CD this liaison infatuates. Dennerlein on the Hammond B3, saxophonist Peter Lehel and drummer Daniel Messina find ways to meet with the classical musicians without getting lost in fusion fen. Dennerlein's own compositions like "Longing" or "Pendel der Zeit" (pendulum of time), well-proven in other line-ups, provide a wide range for exciting musical conversations (with a dramatic rise at the end of the title track). Thus, "Change Of Pace" comes along as a thrilling symphonic-jazzy experiment."

Other features will follow in "Jazzthetik", “Keyboards”, “Okey!” and “Jazz-Podium”.

Barbara Dennerlein in German talk show in June

In the German version of the "Letterman show" Barbara will be guest of entertainer Harald Schmidt on June 14th. He played organ in church in his early years but we are not really sure if it will be an expert talk. Probably he is more interested in the question if playing the pedals only with the toes has more sex appeal... Barbara will also perform two or three titles on her Hammond B3. If you can receive the German television (Das Erste, ARD) you might switch-on at 10.45 p.m. (CEST).

You will find the tourdates below. We hope that we will meet on the occasion of one or another concert.
