Jazz at Green Room: Henning Sieverts Symmethree - "Blues"
The latest album by Henning Sieverts Symmethree called Triple B is all about the blues. On this fourth album by the trio, everything revolves around the power of three chords and twelve bars - the musicians play with the given musical parameters: often there are more or sometimes fewer chords or bars, sometimes bar after bar is taken away and then added again. Metric, melodic and harmonic gimmicks that bring new, distinctive beauty to the familiar blues sounds - without ever losing the archaic power of the blues.
The unusual instrumentation of "Symmethree" with trombone, guitar and bass/cello allows for delightful, tonal fusions and a constantly changing distribution of tasks: Everyone sometimes plays melody, sometimes bass function - in other words, grassroots music-making, as Henning Sieverts emphasizes: "We've been playing in this trio since 2011 and have had a lot of time to grow and develop together. Every concert is a pleasurable adventure in which we not only surprise the audience, but also ourselves!"</i

Ronny Graupe's (also German Jazz Award) masterful and unconventional playing on the 7-string guitar is appreciated by musicians as diverse as Wanja Slavin, Christian Lillinger and Rolf Kühn.
