Peter Wegele

Die amerikanische Gesangslegende Mark Murphy über die CD „Storia“:

„Peter Wegele: remember that name. A young composer of jazz, who projects and writes with PASSION. (That word is not “in” today, and we lack because of the need to fell “in”). This may have been assisted by fact that these fine young musicians and artists are from Southern Europe – Peter being a Munich lad. This recording actually absorbed some of the South Slav exoticism and again – PASSION. Done in a Belgrade studio, you sense Serbian rhythms and harmonies of old Yugoslavia with its strange, haunted, tragic past… Peter Wegele has dipped his pen into this and hence, the lovely depth of his music in this CD you just bought.”

„Peter Wegele is a genius on the piano and stays close to all instrumentalists, that all free elements and solo ideas develop in a very organic way in these well structured tunes”
- Münchner Merkur

„Dear Mrs. Nizza Thobi, I have listened carefully and with great interest your interpretation of „Asma Asmaton“, which has deeply moved me. You have followed a different and very personal approach, a fact that I greatly appreciate.”
(Mikis Theodorakis)

(Münchner Merkur, 2007)

„… Classic meets jazz. The musical result was an interplay, that fit together perfectly, a sheet of sound where the contrasts of elements melt in a very interesting way … all tunes have been arranged by Wegele … plus original compositions such as “Taxi” or “November Song”. Again and again it shows how beautiful the quit and settled sounds of the wind instruments harmonize with the freshness of the piano … a successful experiment…”
