Joe Haider Sextet

Maria Magdalena Joe Haider Sextet

Joe Haider fills out a more than an exciting chapter in the book of German jazz history. The guy is certainly a milestone on the piano too. However, he is also one of the most overlooked and not listened to. Is he also an innovator? If you think that real innovation lies these days in resisting the oversized gripping arms of the spirit of the times uncompromisingly, then yes. And a role model? Musically in every respect. In other respects, however, the protagonist even has doubts himself, at least in terms of his past. But one thing is certain: Joe Haider is without a doubt an original and creator of a certain style. He is one of the most important German jazz musicians of the postwar period.
