About the album
„Hope & Gratitude“ is the fascinating and touching debut album of a top international trio with Lorenz Raab (trumpet/flugelhorn), Philipp van Endert (guitar) and Franck Tortiller (vibraphone). The musicians of this new, Austrian-French-German project came together on the initiative of Viennese trumpeter and flugelhorn player Lorenz Raab in 2020 at the Saalfelden Jazz Festival. The improvisational music that Raab, Tortiller and van Endert first tried out as a trio three years ago then retained its unique, melodic character in the studio. At the same time, it often possesses a harmonic complexity that is characteristic of the musical avant-garde, and has that quiet rhythmic impulse that makes this trio’s jazz become expressively emotional chamber music in the first place.
