Jazzweek: Schönecker/ Sasse/ Schieferdecker
'This trio swings incredibly! And in the music of guitarist Joachim Schoenecker, pianist Martin Sasse and Markus Schieferdecker on double bass, it is once again evident that skilfully and intelligently interpreted straight-ahead mainstream jazz is timeless.This album, recorded in one studio day, is of one piece, and it conveys the experience of a perfect set'. (Jazzthetik, May 2023, 5 stars) 'I hardly know any living jazz guitarist who has such an authentic archtop sound as Joachim Schoenecker. In addition, there is his certainty of style, which, however, he definitely enforces in solos with his own virtuoso sound language. To achieve this in the vapor circle of Jim Hall, Pat Martino, Grant Green and Wes Montgomery is a more than mature achievement. That's exactly what you can experience on 'Trio Tales', an album recorded in one studio day that grooves so much that you don't notice until the third track or not at all that there's no drummer involved here.'
