Julian Hulsmann: The Next Door

Spacious and crystalline atmospheres are created by pianist Julia Hulsmann and her team of Uli Kempendorff/ts, Marc Muellbauer/b and Heinrich Kobberling/dr. Concise 3×5 cards are created here, with plaintive piano on the floating “Empty Hands” and the gentle unison lines with the subtoned “Kempendorff on “Polychrome”. The two get intuitive on “Jetzt Noch Nicht” with the team bopping the most on “Open Up”. Muellbaure strums deeply on “Wasp At The Window” and is bluesy for “Made of Wood”. Concise colors.
