After his furious debut album Going Home Berlin Piano Trio puts the singer Lisa Bassenge here his second album before. The title A Sigh, A song could be in completely programmatically meant: between a sigh and a song need not necessarily lie worlds. At least that leads the ninth track, the only original composition of the album, before ears.It shows the band, as it dominates the reduction to the essentials and gets by with very little means to let a song go under the skin atmospherically. In a nutshell, two piano chords, a sensitively-sufficient mysterious bass. They conjure up that mood that can make just by a love sigh air. Of course there is not least the voice of the singer. For some ballads you may still need the large, even lived suffering; but not the passion. Lisa Bassenges singing is clear, supple and experiment. Already on their debut album, they had transformed Madonna's "Like A Virgin" in a delicate, wonderfully complex ballad. Now she has made with her companions except jazz standards more pop Title to deconstruct them. The trio is far from easy to covers songs; Jazz standards, it lights up from scratch, pop songs translated it into the jazz idiom. This produces creations that are sometimes even surpass the original. Rio Reiser "Junimond" Tom Waits '"Ol' 55" or "Shake The Disease" by Depeche Mode are imaginative, sensitive adaptations, but also discover the breaking points. For example, the Lisa Bassenge Trio dispensed with "Shake The Disease" in the well-kept British boredom that blew the arrangements of '80s cult band. The song does well, the trio well. It maintains its own attitude to life, and that has nothing to do with cerebral jazz. ~ Roman Rhode 

Tuesday she enthused Harald Schmidt: Lisa Bassenges Pop-jazz mix is ??ripe for a breakthrough... It is fitting that the first major television appearance of Bassenge Trio last Tuesday went at late night mockers of Sat1 across the stage. Because the transgressing character of music of Lisa Bassenge, pianist Andreas Schmidt and bassist Paul Kleber does not belong in the category of ghetto culture magazines. The Berlin reconcile with songs that everyone knows, interpret with improvisation. As the ancestors of the genre you are looking for the Jazz to Pop. The Bassenge Trio breathes classics by Elvis Presley, Tom Waits or Depeche Mode new life - and open up new world of hearing: so fragile and intimate as in the version of Bassenge Trio Madonna's hit "Like A Virgin" has never sounded ... ~ Handelsblatt, 06.12.2002  Translate by google  http://www.amazon.de/Sigh-Song-Lisa-Bassenge-Trio/dp/B00006ALD7
