Their music has all the attributes that you can enjoy ascribes to the "male" Jazz: Sovereign in the lecture, complex, but do not unnecessarily complicated. With noticeable roots, but it's full expression. In short, coming from the abdomen, grown music, the notes you still head insert and consideration. The title of the album, "No Blah Blah" (published in 2012 at the renowned Mannheim label JAZZ'n'ARTS by Thomas Siffling and promoted by the "Initiative Musik"), is the program. Full content and exciting are the compositions, charming is the whole concept of this CD.Musically takes Alexandra Lehmler not mince words, except, of course, that of her saxophone. The old masters of jazz has it audibly studied intensively; we repeatedly influences of different jazz eras in their game on, internalized melodies and lyrical themes - and a lot of contour.
Lehmlers "vibrating sound on the predominantly blown in bright layers of saxophone, the sleek lines and the song-like melodies," Klaus Mümpfer summed this up in Jazzpodium in words, were "unmistakable". And the Mannheimer Morgen cheers: "Wonderfully light hand they staged their music." Born in Bad Ems on the Lahn 1979 Alexandra Lehmler would certainly become also an excellent pianist, if not the grandpa would have chopped up the piano for firewood. So they had to decide on a different instrument and inflamed than eight year old girl for the saxophone. After five years of verordnetem parents clarinet lessons she could finally begin at age 13 with her ??favorite instrument and learned alongside alto and soprano saxophone and the bass clarinet.Next she took with all stations of a promising musical career: she played in the National Youth Jazz Orchestra under the direction of Peter Herbolzheimer and, among others, Maria Schneider, David Liebman, Jurgen Friedrich, Peter Weniger and Bobby Shew. After completing her studies at the Musikhochschule Mannheim, she deepened her skills with Bernd Konrad in Stuttgart and at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris. 2004 took place in Alexandra Lehmler Daniel Prandl (p), Matthias Debus (bs) and Max Mahlert (dr) their long-time musical companions that accompany them consistently on the path of a strictly European and world jazz.
With a native of Colombia percussionist Farouk Gomati the formation short time later grew to a quintet and advanced the world's musical component crucial. The years of continuous work have Alexandra Lehmlers band welded together - at No Blah Blah, it already is the third album together. In terms of staff, the original quintet grew up in this time septet, this time also participate in the guitar and Michael Flury on the trombone as guests Frank Mobus. You and bassist Matthias Debus - her companion in the band and in life and father of two children are at the center and have also composing shared. As a gang leader Alexandra Lehmler attaches importance to a sound where the "color of the sound," as Rainer Koehl recognize very properly in the Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung, "plays a special role." The Band box she used here was always stocked with bright colors that seem to affect most appealing in their combination: "The World Seen from below" On the last album (2009) wrote at the time the music week: "Never annoying, never intrusive, always entertaining and varied, this album is. "What does the musician and her band in No Blah Blah back to music, is an exciting, spirited condensate from classical jazz elements with refreshing influences from the Balkans and Latin America. Also world music flows in Lehmlers jazz quite naturally, occurs occasionally in the foreground. thus makes Alexandra Lehmler canted-inclined jazz for the general mainstream. So spirited, as playful.
