They are once again making a splash with their substantial, profound Viennese song/jazz mishmash in contemporary mode, this lively creative brass band. It's been going well for about ten years now and is getting better and better. This famous Remasuri takes place here once a year. It started with a full wash. From then on, counterpoint adventurousness drove a colorful game. Collective waves went up in the best fine-tuning. And Lendl handled the syntax of the lyrics quite intuitively. Lyrics that delight in these humorous, old and new dialect word treasures that reflect the Viennese soul with pinpoint accuracy. Their penchant for sympathetic, hammy flirtation, morbidity, melancholy and grumpiness. Musically perfectly prepared. The melodic extravagance enjoyed the charge of unconventional arrangements, rich in refined harmonic and rhythmic facets, from harsh to spun. A remodeled Viennese song style, crowned by Lendl & Müller, and today's understanding of jazz without fear of contact, as lived par excellence by the Jazzwerkstatt protagonists, are pretty much the best hawara. Each profession emphasizes its own characteristics, but also plays heartily with those of the other.

 

It waltzed and polked, the brass furor raged, it dixielandelte, atonalte in fortissimo, reggaete, rührseligte.
At one time or another, they were all out of their element with improvisations.From the perspective of the great Viennese song tradition, we can now speak of a unique "Viennese jazz art song" form.They perform in the "Jazz-Stammbeisl".(Hannes Schweiger about the concert on January 5, 2019)
