Rolf Zielke \u2013 piano, cembalo, rhodes, keys, whistling In late 2019, Rolf Zielke formed the Global Groove Orchestra<\/em> for the studio recording of his new album Beaches in Your Soul<\/em>. It reflects his musical experiences in recent years, experiences characterised by transcultural explorations of new music, traditional Arab and Asian music, and contemporary jazz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rolf Zielke’s innovative contemporary compositions are inspired by these intense musical encounters with musicians from diverse cultural backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Zielke’s music is simultaneously complex, cross-cultural and masterful, but also spiritual, charismatic and accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n His compositions and improvisations unfold into unique transcultural sound textures:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rolf Zielke: ‚Through our creative collaboration, we open ourselves up to the music as it sounds at that moment, without thinking about judgements, viewpoints or theories. In this process, we bestow that moment with an intense expression creating an unquestionable sense of identification and recognition.‘<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Global Groove Orchestra: Rolf Zielke \u2013 piano, cembalo, rhodes, keys, whistlingBenny Brown \u2013 trumpet, flugelhornStephan Abel \u2013 saxophone, clarinet, alto fluteStephan Braun \u2013 5-string celloMohannad Nasser <\/p>\n
