Joe Fiedler - Solo
Playing music from his acclaimed 2022 solo trombone recording, The Howland Sessions
August 2022 marked the 50th anniversary of a landmark moment in the development of contemporary trombone playing: Albert Mangelsdorff’s first solo trombone performance at the Jazz Now! Festival in Munich in 1972. Though Mangeldorff already was a European jazz celebrity, his appearance at Jazz Now! broadened the public’s understanding of the possibilities of the instrument and inspired many generations of trombone experimenters, including Joe Fiedler. Fiedler has chosen to mark the anniversary of Mangeldorrf’s appearance at Jazz Now! with the release of his own contribution to the advancement of trombone solo performance
on The Howland Sessions.
"Fiedler’s artistic triumph here is undeniable, setting an incredibly high bar for trombonists everywhere. (4 Stars)” - DOWNBEAT
"Fiedler manages to trump the master (Mangelsdorff): his chords are even broader, more colorful and more opulent, not only the rich lows impress, but also his flexible high register.” - JAZZ PODIUM
