Und ja, da gibt es immer wieder diese großen Momente .... Ein paar Monate zuvor war es Gunter Hampel, der Pionier des freien Jazz, der beim Jazzlines-Festival mit einem Ensemble aus sehr jungen Musikern jene atemberaubenden Momente kollektiver Improvisationskraft erzeugte, die in der Musiktheorie mangels Erklärungsmodellen „Pulse“ heißen."

"ERLEUCHTETE GESELLSCHAFT"

Glamour und Groteske: Das Land verleiht den Praetorius-Musikpreis bei einer Gala im Schauspielhaus Hannover von Stefan Arndt

…..daß die Geehrten durch ihre Aufführungen den Abend tatsächlich phasenweise Größe geben, spricht für ein gelungenes Auswahlverfahren...Mit dem Auftritt des 73 jährigen Jazzmusikers Gunter Hampel (Musikinnovationspreis) kommt dann endgültig Leben ins Schauspielhaus: Nicht nur, weil er mit seiner fulminanten Music+Dance Improvisation Company tatsächlich „Smiling Energy“ ausstrahlt, sondern auch, weil er bei der Preisübergabe Sätze sagt wie „Mein Traum ist es, dass es eine erleuchtete Gesellschaft gibt“ - und damit sogar Kulturministerin Johanna Wanka für einen Moment sprachlos macht. Daß Hampel kein esotherischer Phantast ist, erfährt man spätestens, als der renommierte und würdevolle Gambist Jordi Saall (internationaler Friedensmusikpreis) in die gleiche Kerbe schlägt und Musik als Weg zum inneren Frieden empfiehlt.

live at the JAZZLINE JAZZ FESTIVAL MUNICH-

gunter hampel-johannes schleiermacher-andreas lang-bernd oezsevim

review in JAZZTHETIK by Hans Jürgen Schaal:

gunter hampel (73)is still as he used to be:

tall,slender, sporty as always, eloquent and his mission is his inspiration.

also his music : unaltered fresh, with this clear pesistent directness, un-tenseness and un-formalistic.

fluid transistions of soloist-combination, energy-levels, expressions :

a collage consisting of free and swinging episodes.

hampels vibrafon supports and adds rhythmic flows or flaming clusters,

tenorsax and bassclarinet celebrate thrilling themes and rubati.

the flute provides tonally accents.

in the past Hampel's saxophonists carried names like Keyserling, Schubert, or Weidner,

since 1o years it is the magnificent Johannes Schleiermacher,

completed by Andreas Lang (bass)

and Bernd Oezsevim (drums)

.Hampel's EUROPEAN QUARTET consists of a multitude of good bands within-next to each other-side by side.

His performance was one of the festival highlights !

Jazztime: Schwebend zwischen Traum und Wirklichkeit

Gunter Hampels Galaxie Dream Band

Von Bert Noglik

Er zählt zu den Pionieren und mittlerweile zu den Veteranen einer frei orientierten Jazzmusik in Europa: der Vibraphonist, Flötist und Saxophonist Gunter Hampel. Bereits Mitte der sechziger Jahre spielte er, gemeinsam mit Musikern wie Alexander von Schlippenbach und Manfred Schoof, wegweisende Aufnahmen ein. Im Unterschied zur Powerplay-Ästhetik setzte er von Anfang an auf eine Freiheit mit einer lyrischen Dimension und impressionistischen Klangbildern. Die Galaxie Dream Band, deren Konzept er heute mit jüngeren Musikern fortsetzt, bildet einen Mittelpunkt im Schaffen von Gunter Hampel.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JAZZ-ICON GUNTER HAMPEL   recorded 1966 in the netherlands a superb recording for the avantgarde label ESP. it was his second LP in his professional jazz career and his first for an US label. the first was his famous HEARTPLANTS LP with the GUNTER HAMPEL QUINTET , with Hampel on vibrafon and flute,Manfred Schoof trumpet, Alexander v, Schlippenbach piano, Buschie Niebergall bass and dutch masterdrummer Pierre Courbois, which is the first european outing on LP where europeans start to incorporate their own heritage, in this case it was the integration of the findings of the vienna new music legacy of schoenerg,webern und berg who influenced the improvising jazzgroup GUNTER HAMPEL QUINTET (from 196o-1966 )to discover the atonal music areas and going away from the 32 bars and 12 bars material to improvise in and from. Hampel started the jazzscene , the free jazz scene in europe and continues since then to explore the "infinity of NOW"( coda jazzmagazin,canada) Don Ellis tp remarked on the ESP 1o42 MUSIC FROM EUROPE. (actually don ellis had been sitting in with the gunter hampel quintet back in 196o at the Hamburgh Jazzclub -barret- where gunter had month-long enegagements:) "FIRST OF ALL; IT IS REFRESHING TO HEAR SOME EUROPEANS going their own way,and not merely trying to copy the latest thing in american jazz. all in all it is good to see some europeans getting over their inferior complexes and starting to stretch out and create their own music without  worrying about just copying the latest record from the USA. THIS WAY THEY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY OF REALLY CONTRIBUTING SOMETHING TO JAZZ: DJANGO DIT IT- IT IS TIME SOME OTHERS TRIED SERIOUSLY:     DON ELLIS So ,what happens next :   . non other than BENNY GOODMAN heard the GUNTER HAMPEL GROUP playing at the COMBLAIN LA TOUR JAZZ FESTIVAL, comes totally enthusiastic on stage while Hampel' s group is playing and asks for permission of his NBC TV camera-team to tape Hampel's performance. Benny loved the frontline with the 2 bass clarinets (Hampel and Breuker). so, the next BENNY GOODMAN SHOW on NATIONWIDE TV starts with a 1o minute excerpt from Hampel's Group playing this new mindblowing stuff with Hampel's compositions and excursions into impromptu collective improvisations.  that was in 1966. bernhard stolman from ESP saw that and sent Hampel a telegramm: produce a recording for my ESP label.! in that recording session a further influence in Hampel's carreer took place. one audience member in that recording session was JEANNE LEE, and her 2 year old daughter Naima kicked a beer bottle to a microphone and Hampel had to erase a few notes from the recordings, but: 2 weeks later, Jeanne was singing wih the GUNTER HAMPEL GROUP on new years eve in Amsterdam and was not only THE VOICE   in his groups, like the GUNTER HAMPEL GALAXIE DREAM BAND,his ORCHESTRA and countless small group recordings on birth records, but they also have 2 children, RUOMI and CAVANA.    2oo8: But it is this ONE SONG: MAKE LOVE NOT WAR on the ESP recording that thrills young audiences in SOUTHAMERIKA and the USA. AIR-play on many radio stations and multiple requests for more airplay are encouraging the station managers to send Hampel emails FOR MORE OF HIS MUSIC . so the re-issue of this ESP recording shows, that even after 42 years, how timeless Hampel's music is. and it sounds fresh, as if it was recorded an hour ago, like all of his recordings on birth records, and that are about 12o CDs-DVDs-LPS which all have made jazz history and are introducing new works, pieces of incredible far seeing ways how to communicate with each other in the band and with the attending audience, and then ALL TOGETHER explore the still unexplored.  Hampel's contribution to jazz goes that far, that he has invented,extended, composed,explored,a field of creative energy with which the improvising musician can go beyond. beyond that horizon as a limitation fence. the young audiences seem to catch up with the man and his music and his incredible working units who are up to this day experiencing in each concerental jazz legends, as well as much younger generations of players.Hampel wisely surrounds himself with young musicians hat can both: keep up with him as well as push the proverbial envelope.TO GREAT EFFECT. His new works aren't a rehash of previous music, as Hampel's compositional well never dries up, though his characteristic jazz flavor is still evident. one can readily ascertain why his young companions are regarded as some of the best jazz musicians and why their leader is such an estalished musical figure." by Javier Antonio Quinones Ortiz  all about jazz nyc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the ESP and BIRTon on TUESDAY -FEBRUARY 17th at 1o PM,Giuseppe Loogan peforms at 11PM at the POETRY CLUB on the BOWERY -below astor place in the east village -------------------------------------------- Gunter Hampel vibrafon,bassclarinet,flute will be heard in one of his rare SOLO- performances.

HIS LP HEARTPLANTS on MPS IS THE FIRST MANIFESTATION of a EUROPEAN -influenced IMPROVISED JAZZMUSIC which paved the way for a FREE JAZZ SCENE IN GERMANY-WEST AND EAST,HOLLAND,BELGIUM;FRANCE;ITALY and when he moved to New York in 1969 his album THE 8TH OF JULY 1969 with GUNTER HAMPEL-ANTHONY BRAXTON-JEANNE LEE-WILLEM BREUKER-STEVE McCALL began a new jazz era and is a timeless new model for future jazz to come and still stands out today as a new way of improvising together even beyond the free jazz thing: THE BEGINNING OF THE MUSIC OF BANDLEADER & COMPOSER ;ARRANGER + MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST GUNTER HAMPEL THE MUSIC OF GUNTER

ALL ABOUT JAZZ-NEW YORK-AUGUST edition:GUNTER HAMPEL AUGUST 31,1937

LOUIS ARMSTRONG came streaming from the radio of a US army truck 1945 in the backyard of his home in germany, and young Gunter, already immersed in European classical music, became intrigued with this new sound.A variety of intruments began to occupy his hands including clarinet,vibes,saxophone,accordeon and flute and soon he was composing.He toured EUROPE with many groups, including his own and worked with DON CHERRY-CECIL TAYLOR-ARCHIE SHEPP-ANTHONY BRAXTON-STEVE McCALL-MARION BROWN-LESTER BOWIE and his wife JEANNE LEE, among others.In 1969,when he moved to NEW YORK ,he founded his own label BIRTH RECORDS.

GUNTER HAMPEL-JOHANNES SCHLEIER-MACHER DUO

recorded july 21st, 2oo7 in BERLIN-germany at REBIRTHatLOVELITE

bert noglik : STELLAR DUST -HAMPEL-SCHLEIERMACHER NEW CD

He always has been playing wonderful, free improvised DUOs with other Jazz Greats,with MARION BROWN,PERRY ROBINSON,ANTHONY BRAXTON,STEVE McCALL,SUNNY MURRAY,with the incomparable and unforgottoen JEANNE LEE...in musical dialogs unfolds his sensibility and joy of communication which distinguishs Gunter Hampel also as a great bandleader.With long-term-energy and creative sense of mission, he achieves to transport his music into Earth's orbit..(in contrast to those who complained or even gave up, he continues forever and creates his power also out of the magnificent tradition of jazz.Out of a music, which actually has to be defined as a movement to renewal

. Everything, we all debate about , he practically knew to solve:

a-the selforganisation of innovativ music.

b-how to address his jazzmusic towards young audiences.

c-the integration of the up-growing generations.

The opposition of american and european jazz bounces off of him, because he always was and is at home in both scenarios.

GUNTER HAMPEL knows very well,that jazz always had to fight against the crusts of the establishment to gain recognition and respect.

And in an exemplary fashion he developed survival-strategies with a modesty, which placed the music into the foreground and pushed the business into the background.

His vitality and his nearness to what people moves in their day by day life, let him never end-up-in-a-cloud-cuckoo-land and made it possible for him to re-dock to the social reality..because their development is by no means indifferent to him: he shows alternativs with his music.

as practised by other jazz greats he reflects beats and sounds of the young generations. He takes the expression-forms like breakdance and hiphop serious and and integrates them into his music, without to curry favour with the young musicians.

THAT TOO GAINED HIM A RECOGNITION FAR BEYOND JAZZ.

The "GUNTER HAMPEL MUSIC+DANCE COMPANY" HAS FOUND THE WAY INTO THE HEARTS OF A YOUNG GENERATION! The GUNTER HAMPEL EUROPEAN TRIO with the saxophonist Johannes Schleiermacher+the drummer Bernd Ozsevim is the instrumental center of the Music and Dance Company.

The DUO of GUNTER HAMPEL and JOHANNES SCHLEIERMACHER is operating as those 2 bands ultimate inner concentration of formative essence.

Gunter Hampel, the Guru who has been celebrating on August 31st his 7oth birthday,connects his, in decades collected experiences with an unbelievable young seeming spontaneity and flexibility. In a joint undertaking with the almost 5o years younger Johannes Schleiermacher, who joined Gunter's bands, when he was 17, 5 years ago, they play a music which seems to be a continuation of Hampel's legendary and pointing the way ahead, trendsetting GUNTER HAMPEL and his GALAXIE DREAM BAND, equally lyrically and expressive, free-floating and always with an spiritualized inner feeling for swing and drive. Bebop seems to be released in free-playing and all that together in a generation connecting ACTUALITY OF JAZZ!! bert noglik,leipzig
