In collaboration with Rolf Kühn, MPS has put together a limited 9-LP box set to celebrate the 90th birthday and the life of this true German jazz icon. The box set contains seven albums, including a live recording of the "Rolf + Joachim Kühn Quartet" at the Berlin Jazz Days 1966 and the Newport Festival 1967 which is published for the rst time - newly mastered for vinyl. For a German jazz musician to nd international recognition as a major player has been and remains a rarity. Clarinetist Rolf Kühn belongs to this elite class. And there are ample grounds for this: he is an exceptional artist on his instrument. No one sounds like him on the clarinet; warm, round and masterful, his tone remains unmistakable no matter what style he may be playing at any given moment. His play resonates with a maturity and wisdom gathered from a long and rich life of musical experiences. Kühn continues to be driven by an unbridled curiosity that compels him to continually stray from familiar paths and tried and true formulas. Yet equanimity and a sense of completeness are as intrinsic to his work as the daring and the adventure of risk-taking.
Albums in the box: Total Space (1975) / Symphonic Swampfire (1979) / Cucu Ear (1980) / Stereo (2015 – never released on vinyl before) Spotlights (2016 – never released on vinyl before) / Yellow + Blue (2018 – never released on vinyl before) / Rolf + Joachim Kühn – Live: Berlin ’66 / Newport ’67 (2019 – exclusive to this box set)
