Gestern Mittwoch den 18.082021, starb Paul Düster.

Eine sehr traurige Nachricht , die mir seine langjährige Frau Elke Roitzheim zu kommen lies.

Sprachlos war und bin ich.

Zum 2ten Male in kürzester Zeit, nur sprachlos.

Es hatte sich angebahnt und trotzdem kam es wie aus dem Nichts.

Mein Verhältnis zu Paul entstand vor Jahren aus einer professionellen Situation.

Ich spielte ein Konzert und er machte Photos.

Über die Jahre hat er immer wieder Photos gemacht, so wohl bei Konzerten,

als auch für meine beruflichen Aktivitäten.

Und dann tauchte er immer bei den lokalen Sport Events auf, die mich interessierten.

Das war unsere eigentliche Leidenschaft : Sport und das auf allen Ebenen,

von der 3ten Kreisklasse bis zur Bundesliga.

Er war der Verein, die Mannschaft, der Einzelspieler.

Er kannte jeden und jede , war interessiert, schaute alles , was mit Sport zu tun hatte.

Er kannte jeden und jede/r kannte ihn.

Er war der Paul, der Photos machte , die man dann Montags in den Medien sehen konnte.

Übrigens haben wir beide die gleiche Idee eines Photos: man muss die Situation erahnen und dann schießen.

Seine Photos waren Weltklasse, weil sie alles über das Spiel sagten.

Auch gab es dann Montags oder Dienstags kontroverse Telephonate von verschiedensten Seiten, warum den Spieler und nicht den Anderen , warum nicht die Situation abgedruckt in den Zeitungen erschien.

Viele haben seine Bilder verstanden.

Ich immer.

Der Druck am Wochende gute Bilder und Artikel abzuliefern war enorm.

.

Wir haben zusammen Handball -BAM, Basketball DJK , Volleyball ( Marmagen Frauen -was für eine gute Zeit und Düren Powervolleys ) geschaut und uns über die jeweilige Mannschaft ausgetauscht.

Es war immer, als wären wir der Verein und so ging es um Leistungsstände, Prognosen, Sponsoren, Möglichkeiten und das war für uns beide , eine gute Zeit.

Für mich : eine sehr gute Zeit.

Es waren mal längere mal kürzere Treffen, oft auch auf dem Sprung zum nächsten Termin.

Aber immer noch Zeit für ein kurze Pause, die ich nicht weiter ausführen möchte.

( Ich grinse ein wenig )

Sport war bestimmt nicht Pauls einzige Seite.

Da werden andere Anderes schreiben.

Es war unsere Verbindung und das werde ich sehr vermissen.

Das ist Paul für mich:

Ein Typ, ein Mensch, der gute und schwere Zeiten erlebt hat.

Ein Mann , der oft gekämpft hat und bestimmt noch nicht gehen wollte.

Er ist gegangen und Elke bleibt.

Dir Elke ,wünsche ich alles Gute und drück dich !

I’m happy and feel some power which is needed at home .

See you !!!! Big huggggs to all !

 

Unter der Leitung von Julia Sawicka fand der diesjährige einwöchige Jazz Workshop in Leszno Polen statt.

 

Immer wieder ist es  ein beeindruckendes Erlebnis , wie sich Menschen am Anfang des Workshops treffen und dann als Freunde gehen.

Danke auch für diese Gelegenheit dies  erfahren zu dürfen.

Neben all der Arbeit mit den Trompetern und den Combos sind 

 

 Vodoo Session

einmalige Erlebnisse.

 

findet diese oft als 2 Tägige Geschichte statt, so war dies in Leszno 5x 1 Std..

 

Das hatte schon auch besondere Moment, zB als wir gemeinsam nach Brasilien reisten und an der Cocacabana das Girl von Ipanema zu suchten und fanden um dann wenig später in  Paris landeten , wo die Atmoshere , Danke an Jarek Buszukowski -Akkordeon, sofort spürbar wurde……

Vodoo     eben….

Konzert Photos Witold Spisz

Der diesjährige Workshop fand , unter  Covid Bedingungen statt.

Ein schweres Unterfangen, was aber erfolgreich absolviert wurde.

 

Hier einige Bild Impressionen vom Workshop und  nach 1 1/2 Jahren,  wieder ein Konzert.

 

Das war durchaus bemerkenswert, weil es zu meinem 60ten Geburtstag stattfinden sollte.

Angesicht der Katastrophe , die sich nur wenige Tage vor dem Konzert abgespielt hat,

war dies in der Form nicht möglich.

Ich habe das Konzert den Leuten gewidmet , die zu Hause von der Katastrophe getroffen waren und den Zuhörern, die Jahre vorher von einem schweren Oder Hochwasser getroffen wurden.

This is a great tool-please check and you will find new possibilities- some critics :

a great tool and some critics : ● The Flugelhorn is pure joy to listen to. It pairs completely well with other sounds. I love to isolate just the flugelhorn, and either add some rain sounds, or add it to some light coffee house sounds, perhaps with some 88 Keys for the effect of hearing some live jazz.● Something about this feels so reflective and sad. For me, this is like the embodiment of knowing you are about to pass away, and sitting on a bench in a park, watching pensively as young life (the children) innocently plays around you. Life around you teams with vigor and activity. I feel that the trumpet represents you reflecting on your life and coming to terms with the end.● PS. How could you resist calling it ‚Hans of Time‘?● Very Blade Runner 1982, but after the darkness lifted and the rain stopped.● This is magic!● Whoa! Sounds like Nils Petter Molvaer on that trumpet!● Thank you so much for the great opportunity and the cool comments. You totally made my day. We had so much fun making this generator that HP and me decided to follow up with a full album of ambient type music. It will be soon available on all digital platforms for download and streaming. Look out for Salentin&Scheffler/Deepavali.● I’m sitting on the roof of a building, at sunset, looking how everyone is doing their summery, bittersweetly tired activities. There’s not a hint of danger, just pure, warm comfort, and an apparent endless amount of time for me to fall asleep. You’re in the moment right now, not wanting it to end, ever. You know this is going to pass, yet you feel the start of this summer was an eternity away.● This is wild – it feels like it’s from a place I know very well but somehow never visited!● This takes me back to 1975/76 and growing up in Novato, California. It reminds me of the quiet and breezy summer days, hearing the neighbor kids in their pool and my mom’s radio tuned to an easy listening station. In the evening the fog would roll across the hills to the west and slowly make its way to our part of town at the foot of Mt. Burdell. Those were halcyon days.● The bells are supposed to be the wind-chimes from the next door neighbour, the dirt voices stand for the voices of the past, that I’m hearing once again in my mind, the sounds of the kids in the background is me, my sister, my cousins, and my very best friend, Rebekah, playing in the sandbox. Tragically passed away from a heart seizure in 1987 at age 8. The soundscape I made takes place in 1985.● This is evocative of watching 70s TV on long summer days in the Poconos. Lying on the floor watching Bionic Woman and Charlie’s Angels and Wonder Woman and Hart to Hart. Listening to my brother and his friends outside. Empathizing too well with the poignant and disappointing lesson at the end of the episode as the credits roll.● I’ve been smartworking with this in the background the whole afternoon and found it made me feel… well, cosy and comfortable as I type at the keyboard, watching the sun set and the room grow darker. The flugelhorn and bells seem to do the magic for me, but I prefer to tone down the voices. I’ll certainly get back to this generator again!● I miss being a kid. So this is just right for me.● This is amazing! This brings back so many memories. A brand new page and my nostalgia levels went through the ROOF. Thank you. If I can afford it, I’ll definitely donate.● As a jazz lover and bass player, I LOVE the fretless bass on this! I’ll be coming back to this a lot for studying.● I resonate with the Hans-vibe! Laughed and smiled throughout the description… these music combinations are a work of art. I like this generator because it’s so very human… it’s like being able to look back on a sunny memory an old friend shares with you, a photo-book of music.

                                                                                                                                      2020

What a year……

I really don’t want to look back.

Too many fears of this Virus around me.

Too many politicians, who made difficult decissions and too many stupid people , who ignored the established rules and made my life even more difficult.

No concerts and no traveling in 2020- no workshops -no meetings with friends…

Well, a difficult year.

But 🙂

I want to tell a bit about some aspects and some projects which would not be on the road without that troubles.

First I remember one video session in Wuppertal.

I really appreciate how this people there were dealing with the situation.

They made a great job and I’m very happy to have met those people.

Wladimir Burkhardt invited me for this event to Jonathan Rabanus and his crew.

Thxs for that to all.

One of the things which just happenend was the meeting with the photographer/ filmaker Donetti Nicholas ( working as a journalist for the „Spiegel“ and many more media outlets ) in 2019 in Dieppe / France -Normandie at the place by a internationally wellknown artist William De Brui.

Nicholas made a movie about William’s life and I wrote the music for this. One of plenty Home- Studio Reccordings in 2020.

Another was the collaboration with the Light Artist Günther J. Schaefer, who invented 6 Rings producing „Lights on Water“.

I composed special music for this live -event, which we hopefully can perform in 2021.

A little pre-event was filmed by Hessen TV Studio.

In march 2020, during our first heavy lockdown, I decided to make some dreams come true.

I decided to work on 5 new Projects and I called some of my friends to support me doing this.

All my friends worked on 5 new CD,s during Covid Times :

,,Living Room”,,Pop Agenda”,,Recall”,,Quartier Latin ”,, Quartier Latin Playalong Edition”

Anton Davidyants ( Moscow)– Eugene Uvarov ( Kiew) –Hans Fücker ( Germany),

Sergey Yuzvik ( Kiew)- Igor Zakus-( Kiew) Piotr Baron ( Warsaw)-

Alina Zalozna ( Lviv) – Jaroslaw Buczkowski ( Warsaw),Avinoam Ettun ( Israel)-

Andrew Nikk ( Belgorod)-Walerie Kühl-Hans Jörg Scheffler- Manni Struck…all Germany

thank you all for the great work and the inspirations , we kept the good things going.

But it was a real trip.

Making Pre-Productions-sending tracks all over the world and puzzling it all together.

Some projects would never sound they way the are now with the end- adding and mixing by Hans Jörg Scheffler.

Yes !

And specially with Hans Jörg, we have an outstanding relation and collaborate since many years as Salentin & Scheffler

Our CD ,,Deepavali“ was released in autumn. More to come from Salentin & Scheffler in 2021

But on top , Scheffler used the time to make a project called : ,,Cabin Fever“

Scheffler invited 70 Musicians from all over the world to record a piece of music, including guys like Jacob Collier and many more.

And : me…..LOL

A Masterpiecce of music and Video Art by Hans Jörg Scheffler : ,,Cabin Fever“

Another Home Session started with Ehud Ettun from Israel. Named ,,Global Alliance“

and we recorded with David Alfandary ( Israel),Henrique Eisemann ( Brasil), Adam Zagorski ( Poland), Ehid Ettun ( Israel) and me ( Germany)

found a way to bring extra ordinary musicians for this project together.

What a nice song and I’m happy to work with such great Artists.

Ehud Ettun is also a very good excample for taking chances during this hard year.

He and his wife Brianna are working since many years, to make workshops and concerts in Israel .

The idea is to bring musicians from all over the world together and to make a festival.

So they started with that years ago and had a lot of successful festivals over the years.

What to during a pandemic , when travel is difficult and even impossible ?

End of December they invited musicians from all over for special ,,Online talking sessions“,including music of the artists and started open converstaions with students. Host Ehud invited for one session:

Jacob Means (USA), Haruka Yabuno ( Japan) ,Jason Yeager (USA), Pablo Lapidusas (Brazil/ Argentina) and me.

This was really something ( nearly 2 ½ hour of talk and music) , because I found new friends and outstanding Artists.

Meanwhile during the year,my job at University of Music -Würzburg Jazzzzzzzzz, was running.

3 Month Online sessions only, but at the End of June , I decided to start face to face again- even with combos.

How do you want to perform art by playing and improvising , if you don,t see and hear each other ?

Easy answer : we need to meet and play. I’m really thankfull to have great students, who take me the way I am ( they have no chance anyways -LOL )

but they all did a great job during that year !

I can say that I really enjoyed each teaching session with my combos and I love those guys aswell as the ladys!

And looking forward to continue our work in 2021.

Thanks to Miel Adams my trumpet and Flgh builder and friend, For all you did for me in 2020.

Well…

In 2021 I hope to see and perform at some places again and I have big plans too … like allways …

Miss you : Marcin Kita, Igor Zakus, Laura Marti, Adam Zagorski, Julia Sawicka,Cheryll Pyle, Alina Zalosna, Jarek Buszkowski, Anton Davidyants, Eugene Uvarow , Ehud Ettun, Avinoam Ettun, Boris Mochalin, Nikk Andrew, Piotr Baron and many more …..

I want to meet all you guys and ladys in 2021 and continue our friendship relation in real meetings and music.

Even a simple dinner would be enough for me—-of course with one by one….LOL

I decided to forget about the bad things in 2020 and I try to think about all this projects, which made me feel better and now,

 

I look forward for 2021…

 

All the best to all of you and most importantly : Stay healthy & happy , wherever you are !
