Thomas Prestin / Carsten Uhlig – the river

Description

Hand numbered edition of 300 / live recording / photo: ine lamers / layout: mandy mozart.
Released in 2026 under the catalog number Z-ONE, the album “the river” is a live recording – a snapshot of music from the Hamburger “ZustandsZone” scene between 2014 and 2025. Blending free improvisation with structural depth, the album offers a sonic exploration that will appeal to both purists of the genre and lovers of avant-garde sounds in the contemporary jazz landscape.
The striking artwork underscores the artistic ambition of this highly personal work, which fluidly transcends the boundaries between tradition and modern abstraction.
“Sound arises, passes away, what has been and is perceived, for a sky’s length.”
