The return of jazz: Peter Lenz and his band inspire in Austria

Straden, Österreich - An exciting project has its origins in New York and is now taking the Austrian music scene with overwhelming energy. Peter Lenz, the composer and conductor of a 20-member world-class jazz orchestra, recently presented his latest work entitled "Breathe". Each composition is based on a certain "craziness", as Lenz describes it himself. After a creative creative process that was hungry for inspiration, Lenz got his old colleagues together to design the music for the Big Band. "I first write on the piano and then adapt the pieces for the Big Band," explains the artist in an interview. In addition to the impressive musical aspects, Lenz created creative illustrations in close cooperation with his wife that visually underline the album.

The innovative band Lenz

The special thing about Lenz is not only the Big Band, but also the band itself, which has appeared on a wide variety of stages in Austria since 2016. The band around singer and songwriter Frederik Kleinschmidt illuminates the real life full of open questions in their texts and tells stories that reflect everyday life. "Lenz" draws the audience to energetic concerts, which range from profound ballads to rousing rhythms. After the release of their first album "Tag Am Sea" and the EP "Criticism of judgment" in 2022, new works are already being planned, reports lenz-Band.de .

Peter Lenz himself combines his career as a musician with his role as a teacher at the Musikschule Passail and as head of the local music club in Straden. "It is important to return something," emphasizes Lenz and thus shows his connection to the cultural landscape of Austria. The combination of creative music, passionate performance and deep personal connections shows how the music of Lenz again conquers the hearts of people.
