Majestic ode to music, wonderfully sad Serenade, that sounds like a lost love.“
JazzaCarthage, April 2019 (Tunisia)

Picture two playing cards leaning on one another to create a stable rhythmic and interactive construct – this is how pianist Jörg Leichtfried describes the duo project with trumpeter Dominik Fuss. Together they explore the borders between jazz tradition, classical and modern music. In the process they find their unique sound within their repertoire, consisting of originals and the occasional standard.
Fuss and Leichtfried know each other from various exciting musical formations and genres, but this project unites their common passion for lyrical simplicity and intimacy. Their musical relationship thrives upon Fuss’ strong sense of melody and Leichtfried’s tasteful harmonic support, which both complement and build on each other in a sort of symbiosis.
Fuss and Leichtfried approach the freedom that the duo presents with courage in the use of space. They orient themselves on the ideas of Kenny Wheeler and John Taylor rather than the musical ecstasy of an Oscar Peterson. An intimate musical experience that invites the listener to dream and sink into the space often lacking in the music of today.

Majestic ode to music, wonderfully sad Serenade, that sounds like a lost love.   You can sense the special bond between the two musicians and an even bigger connection between the two instruments. It is as though a conversation was unfolding. A conversation of sorrow and solace.JazzaCarthage, April 2019 (Tunisia)

"Majestätische Ode an die Musik, wunderbar traurige Serenade, die wie eine verlorene Liebe klingt. Man spürt die besondere Verbindung zwischen den beiden Musikern und eine noch größere Verbindung zwischen den beiden Instrumenten. Es ist, als würde sich ein Gespräch entfalten. Ein Gespräch von Trauer und Trost. (…) “JazzaCarthage, April 2019 (Tunesien)
