Reviews

Wogram draws neither on cerebral nor on softened attempts at such fusions, but rather lets each co-player unfold his individuality so that colorful, atmospheric and entertaining images of sound fill up the well balanced compositions.
Leipziger Volkszeitung (Germany), October 5, 2013

And once again, an accomplishment from Nils Wogram. This jazz trombonist, who won this year’s Albert Mangelsdorff prize, adds three stringed instruments to his quartet, Root 70. The result is a sublime synthesis of jazz craftiness and opulent sound.

… a dreamily rehearsed and flexible group … sage music for many emotional states.

Riomar is a seductive introduction to changing positions. Who doesn’t follow this call will miss something.
Sonic (Germany), September / October 2013

Ten such wonderful works …. Composed for this album, and they are all complex and subtle, and capture the listener as if by themselves. This music makes a listener happy.
Jazzthetik (Germany), September / October 2013

… bound up with tradition and modernity as well as complex, catchy and playful … and all along there’s Wogram himself, whose trombone remains in the service of the band sound in spite of his soloistic brilliance. … compelling, clear music, which is organically integrated in itself.
