Label > Fineline
Schattenspiele brings together several facets of Gebhard Ullmann's remarkable creative world, blurring the boundaries between composition and improvisation, structure and spontaneity. Developed over many years, these works reflect an artistic journey of constant reinvention, where musical ideas evolve through performance, reflection and collaboration. From the atmospheric Kleine Symphonie with Berlin's adventurous LUX: NM ensemble to the vibrant colours of Hell und Bunt for the Aduma Saxophone Quartet and the deeply personal solo bass clarinet works, the album reveals Ullmann's unmistakable voice: lyrical, adventurous and endlessly imaginative.The recording captures this music with exceptional intimacy and clarity. The ensemble works were recorded at Berlin's renowned Bonello Studio, where performances were preserved almost entirely live, retaining their organic energy and immediacy. The solo works and saxophone quartet were recorded at Guy Sternberg's celebrated Low Swing Studio, centred around it's lovingly restored vintage Neve console, whose warm, transparent sound perfectly complements the expressive depth and rich sonic palette of Ullmann's bass clarinet and chamber music. Together, these extraordinary recording spaces help bring every nuance of Schattenspiele vividly to life!
