Woody Black 4

Woody Black 4 is all but a standard jazz band. One bass-clarinet sounds warm, but it can sound quirky and aggressive as well. Whereas four bass-clarinets, pure, without any accompaniment, open up these characteristics into unprecedented spheres. This Vienna based quartet of black woods unfolds an exuberant playfulness, sounding out any stylistic and tonal options of such minimalist cast. (Jazzahead! 2016) They are winners of the European Jazz Contest and achieved 2nd place at the New York Jazz Competition 2017.
