Event
The RAZ Duo at The Grey Horse, Balerno, Edinburgh
The RAZ Duo - Andre Krengel and Roland Krause - virtuosi guitarists from Germany who are touring the UK in May 2019 - play a rousing mixture of musical genres. Melodies and grooves from the worlds of jazz, swing, Flamenco, blues, pop & funk and Latin America blending into a wonderfully harmonious whole. With refreshing, boisterous energy and passion André and Roland perform a repertoire comprising original compositions and surprising adaptations of well-known pieces while allowing a great deal of room for spontaneous interaction and improvisation. Tracing paths and adventures of these virtuosi as they enthusiastically travel the world, each piece in their stunning performance tells a story or has a little anecdote.
These players are stunningly gifted - a gig not to be missed!!
Quote from Paul Clerehugh, owner of the Crooked Billet near Henley-on-Thames ...
"When musicians play here they often ask 'had anybody good recently?' Andre Krengel is the artist I mention ...
"Andre performed for us in 2016 with Lulo Reinhardt (Djangos grandnephew) and, watching the show standing at the door, my mouth gaping, I saw simply the most incredible musician. Andre, from Germany, is one of the leading guitarists. He can play in any genre or style. He was guitarist with Lynnard Skynnard. He has played with all the great gypsy jazz guitarists. He jammed with musicians from the Miami Latin & Cuban music scene. In 2005 he co-founded the prize winning band Sina Nossa ("Our Destiny"), a world-music fusion band (winners, World Creole Music Festival) and headlines at Womad festival. The Guardian describes Andre as, " ... a traveller between styles & cultures. A guitar wizard with magic hands, retaining his identity & unique talent in a fusion of musical influences, such is his virtuosity and versatility together with his sense of musical dynamics & soft sounds."
