Meinhart’s band was created in 2008, gathering young performers with great performing skills. With his trombone, Lou Lecaudey takes the lead in every solo, showing he is a seasoned fighter. Tom Berkmann (double bass) and Valentin Schuster (drums) provide the rhythmical cushion the band need for their harmonious and mellifluous renditions. And the impossibly young pianist, Lorenz Kellhuber, is a brave companion in the rearguard, but he can also be in the vanguard. Their musical truth is both pleasing and convincing, for they know how to handle jazz and when to go silent.
