Info for Beijing Underground
Beijing Underground is the debut-album by the Anton Mangold Quartett. The band is based in Germany and the CD-release is under the Classic/Crossover/Jazz Label Dr. Heart Music. A vast musical spectrum is embraced by the young musicians:
From hard-swinging straight-ahead Jazz, like the title track Beijing Underground, to explorations of various kinds of folk music, like the hauntingly beautiful Going West, to Heavenly Peace, which is a soulful ballad with vibrant harmonies. In Behai Park West the band takes off on a smoothly grooving theme featuring Zhihan Xu on guitar, while being supported with vocals - sung gracefully by the bands bass-player. In Frustration the band creates stunning structures build out of emotions and sincere improvisation.
The Band was formed in 2014 by Anton Mangold, Felix Schneider, Theodor Spannnagel and Zhitong Xu. Every single one of them of them has found their own unique voices in the german Jazz scene. They share the same vision: To play Jazz energetically, spontaneously and honestly. The musicians are innovative and open-minded, embracing and indulging themselves in all kinds of musical genres. To name only a few: world-music, hip-hop and contemporary classical music. This openness gives their musical journey a distinct and individual character.

Anton Mangold Quartett
Das Anton Mangold Quartett besteht seit Anfang 2014. Die Musiker lernten sich an der HfM Würzburg im Rahmen ihres Jazzstudiums kennen. Gespielt werden Eigenkompositionen, die durch rhythmische Vielschichtigkeit und harmonischen Einfallsreichtum überzeugen. Die Musiker sind im modernen Straight-ahead Jazz verwurzelt, aber auch offen für Experimentelles und Einflüsse aus Pop und Worldmusik.
Das Anton Mangold Quartett spielte als deutsch/chinesisches Musikprojekt im August/September einige Konzerte in den Jazzclubs von Peking. Seien Sie gespannt auf die neuen musikalischen Einflüsse die dieses junge kreative Quartett mitgebracht hat.
