"German-American pianist Benjamin Lackner makes his ECM debut with a quartet consisting of Manu Katché on drums, trumpeter Mathias Eick and Jérôme Regard on bass. The album’s striking lyrical quality to Benjamin’s compositions open up many possibilities for his colleagues to inject the music with their own character. The chemistry between pianist Benjamin Lackner and Jérôme Regard can be traced back to 2006, when Jérôme first joined Benjamin’s trio. Various incarnations of the trio produced six albums between 2004 and 2019 – Jérôme appears on half of them. Now having to expand his compositional framework from trio to quartet, Benjamin recognizes new opportunities and finds freedom in having a melodic partner on horn. Speak about the new album Lackner explained “We decided early on that this would be an acoustic record, which made it easier for me to focus on a direction and allowed me to rediscover the piano more intimately”."
