‘I first heard the Music of Hermeto more than 25 years ago and fell in love with it instantly. It has continued to fascinate and entrance me ever since, and a small part of the spirit of Hermeto has permeated all my work to date. I hope that this recording is a celebration, tribute and a musical “thank you” for all this and more.’ (Huw Warren)
David Six:
With a particular interest in composing his own music, an innovative approach to improvisation and through creative interpretations of classical pieces, Vienna & Berlin-based pianist David Six has been developing an adventurous performance practice. With a noticeably unique sound on the piano, he performs contemporary, jazz and classical music as a soloist and with numerous ensembles and orchestras.
His musical collaborators include classical soloists as well as outstanding jazz and pop musicians from all over the globe: Mira Lu Kovacs, Stargaze Orchestra, Nora Fisher, Bill Frisell, Terry Riley, Daníel Böðvarsson, David Six’ Matador, Matthias Ruppnig, Laura Winkler’s Wabi Sabi Orchestra,…
“David Six’ solo piano – In The Rosewood Forrest is a release that has drawn large audiences. The release clearly brings Six to the foreground not only as a pianist but also as a composer. Recommended!” ( Musik an sich )
“The depth that David Six explores and uncovers in his piano music is highly impressive. Sitting across from comments of virtuosity, design and background, the source of ‘real’ music is conveyed.” (Christoph Cech)
