SWQ (Sandra Weiss Quintet)

SWQ is a journey into the vast universe of sound, where one rambles, resolving into a billow of sound that evolves into different shapes and densities.
The instruments are the source of a variety of sounds and noises, which are not necessarily recognizable as a saxophone, bassoon, trumpet, bass or drum.

The Cd, SWQ „Ramble“, was released on the English label Leo Records in August 2015

SWQ came together as a result of a number of sessions organized by Sandra Weiss, on her visits to NYC. "It was an amazing musical trip each time we played together and it needed to be recorded eventually."
