Flexkögel - "Amber
Bernstein is a gem, at least Leonard Bernstein! Songs from his musicals "On the Town" and "West Side Story" are the focus of the new Flexkögel program, just before they go into the studio with it to record their third album. Flexkögel is jazz in song format with German and English lyrics. Their expeditions into vast worlds of sound are accompanied by clearly structured soundscapes, graceful, dreamy melodies and reduced beats with rhythmically energetic outbursts.
Flexkögel are the front couple Britta-Ann Flechsenhar (voc, keyb), Christian Kögel (g, dobro) as well as Paul Kleber (b) and Hans Otto (dr).
