Editor's info:
Klaus Koenig, jazz pianist and former sound engineer for the Swiss radio station SFR, made numerous recordings with his Jazz Live Trio for TCB Records. In 1998 he had to stop his musical activity due to an illness in both of his hands. After many years of therapy, the 2012-2013 season with the old/new Jazz Live Trio and the 2013-2014 season with the Seven Things quintet with Dani Schenker, Christoph Merki and the trio meant a return to the music scene. 'Since the great Bill Evans, since the early sixties, I can't really imagine the formula 'pianist plus rhythm group' any longer. This way of playing might have been the rule in earlier times, but today it falls more within the category of easy listening. And it so goes without saying that in concerts, I never speak of my, but of our trio. And I am very, very happy that my two partners, separated from me in age by over a generation, also harmonize so wonderfully with me in this regard. This was the case from day one, without any discussion. One of the lucky moments in my not always lucky life. And I hope that not least this aspect becomes clear to the listener on our second trio album following my comeback to the scene.' (Klaus Koenig about Night Thoughts)
