Terrence Ngassa Septet at the jazz rally Düsseldorf. Soundcheck!<br />Ethno jazz: Terrence Ngassa is one of the leading representatives of the world of jazz and a role model for the younger generation of African musicians. With his ensemble he succeeds in transferring his African musical inheritance into the idiom of jazz. Afro-ethno jazz funk: a sound mix of melodic and rhythmic elements characterised by humour and joy. The ensemble plays a natural and boisterously joyous impulse of powerful colours and rhythms. It's a very jazzy and virtuoso version of world music which is sometimes sentimental and poppy and also includes funky fill-ins. Great drumming, catchy bass lines and a range of impressionist sounds from the piano. • T. Ngassa (tp., voc.), F. de Ribeuapierre (sax., bcl.), T. Heizmann (tb.), L. Genc (p., keyb.), D. Speer (b., b.), M. Pyschny (dr.), N. Ansong (perc.)
