About the concert
The pianist and composer Olga Reznichenko (*1989) founded her current trio in 2018 for her bachelor’s final concert at the Leipziger Musik Hochschule. Since then she has been continuously active on and off stage with Maximilian Stadtfeld (drums) and Lorenz Heigenhuber (double bass). The repertoire created after the final concert celebrated a public premiere at a performance at the Hot Club in Lisbon. During the German lockdowns, the band gave some high-quality streaming concerts, including in the Cologne loft studio.
Olga Reznichenko Trio’s upcoming album, Somnambule, will be released on Traumton Records in the spring of 2022. The pieces of the classically trained pianist show strong creative will, playing with influences from classical modernism, minimalism and modern jazz. They combine intuitive approaches with clear ideas about moods and sound colors. Complex harmonic and rhythmic structures, subtle and powerful moments as well as melodic connecting points result in a personal aesthetic.
