space:bass
SPACE:BASS“ ist das genreübergreifende Duo aus Christine Hoock – klassische Kontrabass Solistin und Produzent und Soundkünstler Umberto Echo, unterstützt von der Pianistin Barbara Nussbaum. Der klassisch gespielte oder auch anderweitig live „bearbeitete“ Kontrabass bewegt sich im überraschenden Klangraum der Elektronik. Ihre Klangkonzepte greifen Elemente der klassischen und der zeitgenössischen Musik, so wie der Popularmusikstile Dub und Ambient auf und bringen sie gemeinsam zum schweben. Widerstand oder Unterstützung. Klangfülle oder -verzerrung? Zwistigkeiten oder der gemeinsame Ritt zur Sonne? Freie Improvisationen, zeitgenössische Auftrags- und Eigenkompositionen und unterschiedliche Arrangements sind Teil ihres
unkonventionellen Repertoires.

World Wide Bass is an absorbing and enjoyable album. Hoock's passionate playing and creative collaborations make this CD an important addition to any bassist's collection. Hoock's liner notes begin with the maxim “Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” In this recording, she does indeed blaze new trails: through new repertoire, incorporation of world and jazz styles, and intriguing instrumental combinations.
Gloria Coates: At Midnight
Gloria Coates: At Midnight
Christine Hoock takes part in the Recording of “Silver Eyed Soul”, composed by Gloria Coates. It is part of the album “At Midnight”, published by the label Tzadik.
Born in Wisconsin and a resident of Germany since 1969, Gloria Coates has been composing for over fifty years. Her work is complex, filled with canons, palindromes, polyrhythms, dissonances, glissandi and is distinguished by a wide expressive and emotional range. Her first CD on Tzadik presents a varied program of music for solo piano, a string quartet, her exciting violin concerto, a piece for bass and piano and a fabulous piece for two tuning guitars. An historic release by one of the world’s most courageous and original musical pioneers!
Madrigali
Munich composer Max Beckschäfer invites us on a fantastic roller coaster ride filled with moving moments on his new GENUIN release, where each piece is a world premiere recording. Beckschäfer presents settings of new and old poetry from the Middle Ages to the post-modern era, bridging the gap over several centuries. Sometimes we feel like we are listening to a medieval troubador, sometimes we hear the disconcerting sound clusters of our time. A pupil of Killmayer, Beckschäfer collaborated with brilliant countertenor Franz Vitzthum, the Ensemble Stimmwerck, and the Ensemble Il Capriccio for this production, artists who truly make the dazzling colors of his music shine – inspiringly different!

„…kraftvoll und elegant…eine fabelhaft gelungene CD…“ – WDR
„Angel Peñas Un petit recueil für drei Kontrabässe sollte nur von jenen Kollegen versucht werden, die so viel jazzigen drive aus den Ärmeln schütteln können wie Christine Hoock, Ute Grewel und Hedwig Matros! … Die CD ist nicht nur den Fachkollegen wärmstens zu empfehlen…“ – Das Orchester
“So it was with this thoroughly enjoyable CD: I was captivated from beginning to end. All the music is infectiously good-humored…. And they play extremely well… the sound is excellent.“ – Fanfare
