Featured works: "Ex tempore 4," "Solo für Klaxylovier und kochende Planeten Berührung 1," "Anrufung," Hab zwei Flügel und kann nicht fliegen Kleine Ballade," "Molto Secco," "33 Jahre später." Hermann Keller: "I improvised in public for the first time in 1962, which was still during my school years. Ever since that time, improvisation has been a part of my life. The oldest recording was made in 1976. Manfred Schulze, although repeatedly selected as Europe's best baritone saxophonist, unfortunately did not become very well known outside the GDR. I played music with him until his serious illness made playing impossible (in 1991, irrevocably), and I learned an incredible amount from him. He especially maintained that one should not try to arrive at a credible imitation of American jazz or West European avant-garde, but should search for one's own expressive possibilities." Performed by: Hermann Keller, Uwe Kropinski, Jurgen Kupke, Antje Messerschmidt, Dietrich Petzold, and Manfred Schulze.
