The Horst Hansen Trio is actually a quartet and doesn't sound as antiquated as the name might suggest - on the contrary: with an energetic mixture of jazz, hip hop and avant-garde elements, they have made quite an impression in recent years at festivals such as the Elbjazz Festival Hamburg, XJAZZ! Festival Berlin or the Leverkusener Jazztage - Manfred McFarlane (sax), Otto Egon Querfeld (tr), Hans-Dieter Zimmermann (kb), Heinz Günther (b), Eberhardt M. Schmidt (dr) - VVK 15/12 €, AK 18/14 €
